(2) "Change-Id" is useless upstream, please drop it.

(3) The placement of this build option hampers the diffability between
OvmfPkgIa32.dsc and {OvmfPkgIa32X64.dsc, OvmfPkgX64.dsc}.

For example, if we diff OvmfPkgIa32.dsc and OvmfPkgIa32X64.dsc right
now, we get a nice hunk like:

Therefore, in the "OvmfPkgIa32.dsc" file, please add the GENFW flags
immediately  after the "!endif" that's visible in the quoted context,
like this:

Because that should allow for the following difference between Ia32 and
Ia32X64:

The rest of the patch looks good to me.

Thanks!
