[edk2-devel] [PATCH v4] IntelFsp2Pkg: LoadMicrocodeDefault() causing unnecessary delay.

REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4391

FSP should support the scenario that CPU microcode already loaded
before calling LoadMicrocodeDefault(), in this case it should return
directly without spending more time.
Also the LoadMicrocodeDefault() should only attempt to load one version
of the microcode for current CPU and return directly without parsing
rest of the microcode in FV.

This patch also removed unnecessary LoadCheck code after supporting
CPU microcode already loaded scenario.
