The new VS2012 build failure is caused by 7a0df26.

xxx\registercpufeatureslib\dxeregistercpufeatureslib.c(258) :
 warning C4701: potentially uninitialized local variable 'MpEvent' used

It is a false positive alarm.
MpEvent is assigned at line 238 and will be used at line 258, both
lines are controlled by "if (CpuFeaturesData->NumberOfCpus > 1)".

This patch initializes MpEvent to suppress incorrect compiler/analyzer
warnings.
