To speed up MP initialization, this set of patches replaces the 
time-consuming init-sipi-sipi process in the DXE phase. Instead, 
a start-up signal is used to wake up the APs and switch context
 from the PEI phase to the DXE phase. This optimization is 
 effective when both PEI and DXE operate in the same bit mode. 
The current HOB characterized by mCpuInitMpLibHobGuid has 
two purposes:
  Acting as a global variable for the PEI phase.
  Transferring information from the PEI phase to the DXE phase.
This series of patches creates a new HOB specifically designed 
to transfer only the minimal necessary information 
(MpHandoff structure) from the PEI phase to the DXE phase.

YuanhaoXie (5):
  UefiCpuPkg: Refactor the logic for placing APs in HltLoop.
  UefiCpuPkg: Refactor the logic for placing APs in Mwait/Runloop.
  UefiCpuPkg: Create MpHandOff.
  UefiCpuPkg: ApWakeupFunction directly use CpuMpData.
  UefiCpuPkg: Eliminate the second INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence.

Initially, the purpose of the Hob was twofold: it served as a way to
transfer information from PEI to DXE. However, during the DXE phase,
only a few fields from the CPU_MP_DATA which collected in PEI phase were
 needed. A new Hob was specifically created to transfer information
 to the DXE phase. This new Hob contained only the essential fields
 required for reuse in DXE. For instance, instead of directly including
  the BspNumber in MpHandOff, the DXE phase introduced the use of
  GetBspNumber() to collect the BspNumber from ApicID and CpuCount.

The SaveCpuMpData() function was updated to construct the MP_HAND_OFF
Hob. Additionally, the function introduced the MP_HAND_OFF_SIGNAL,
which solely served the purpose of awakening the APs
and transitioning their context from PEI to DXE. The
WaitLoopExecutionMode field indicated whether the bit mode of PEI
matched that of DXE. Both of them were filled only if the ApLoopMode
was not ApInHltLoop. In the case of ApInHltLoop, it remained necessary
to wake up the APs using the init-sipi-sipi sequence. This improvement
 still allow INIT-SIPI-SIPI even APs are wait in Run/Mwait loop mode.

The function GetMpHandOffHob() was added to facilitate access to the
collected MpHandOff in the DXE phase. The CpuMpData in the DXE phase
was updated by gathering information from MpHandOff. Since MpHandOff
replaced the usage of OldCpuMpData and contained essential information
from the PEI phase to the DXE phase. AmdSevUpdateCpuMpData was included
to maintain the original implementation of AmdSev, ensuring that
OldCpuMpData->NewCpuMpData pointed to CpuMpData.

In the original design, once the APs finished executing their assembly
code and switched to executing C code, they would enter a continuous
loop within a function. In this function, they would collect CpuMpData
using the MP_CPU_EXCHANGE_INFO mechanism. However, in the updated
approach, CpuMpData can now be passed directly to the ApWakeUpFunction,
bypassing the need for MP_CPU_EXCHANGE_INFO. This modification is made
in preparation for eliminating the requirement of a second
INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence in the DXE phase.

When both the PEI and DXE phases operate in the same execution
mode(32-bit/64-bit), the BSP send a special start-up signal during
the DXE phase to awaken the Application APs.

To eliminate the need for the INIT-SIPI-SIPI sequence at the beginning
of the DXE phase, the BSP call the SwitchApContext function to trigger
the special  start-up signal. By writing the specified
StartupSignalValue to the designated StartupSignalAddress, the BSP
wakes up the APs from mwait mode. Once the APs receive the
MP_HAND_OFF_SIGNAL value, they are awakened and proceed to execute the
SwitchContextPerAp procedure. They enter another while loop,
transitioning their context from the PEI phase to the DXE phase.

The original state transitions for an AP during the procedure are as
follows:
Idle ----> Ready ----> Busy ----> Idle
      [BSP]      [AP]      [AP]

Instead of init-sipi-sipi sequence, we make use of a
start-up signal to awaken the APs and transfer their context from
PEI to DXE. Consequently, APs, rather than the BSP, to set their state
to CpuStateReady.
