REF: https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1982

MpInitLibInitialize in MpLib.c will be invoked on both PEI and DXE
CPU code, MicrocodeDetect would be performed twice and copy
Microcode from flash to memory twice as well, which consider as
duplicate work to lead longer boot time.
This patch just use microcode memory copied in PEI phase if exist.

I applied this patch locally and reviewed it with:

  git show -b -W

The change looks reasonable to me.

(1) Please clarify the subject line a bit. My suggestion is:

  UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: don't shadow the microcode patch twice

(this is 58 characters). Feel free to tweak this further if you wish;
the point is that "copy" is too generic in itself.


With (1) fixed:
