[edk2-devel] [PATCH 3/3] MdePkg: remove <Mps.h>

["Laszlo Ersek" <lersek@redhat.com>]

The MPS table is legacy from the traditional BIOS era. According to the
file-top comment in the header, it was only included in UEFI (and so in
edk2) for Itanium's sake (and Itanium is also gone from edk2).

Remove the header, and the MPS table GUID definition. There are no
references left in edk2 or edk2-platforms.
