[edk2-devel] [Patch 1/1] UefiCpuPkg/Library/MpInitLib: Fix AP VolatileRegisters race condition

BTW:

Do you think it worth or not to add the check like below in Edk2\UefiCpuPkg\Library\MpInitLib\PeiMpLib.c GetCpuMpData()? If the assert was there, it would facilitate the debug?

    CpuMpData = (CPU_MP_DATA *) (Idtr.Base + Idtr.Limit + 1);
+    ASSERT (CpuMpData != NULL);

Thanks,
Star
