[edk2-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] UefiCpuPkg/PiSmmCpuDxeSmm: Check BspIndex first before lock cmpxchg

["Wu, Jiaxin" <jiaxin.wu@intel.com>]

This patch is to check BspIndex first before lock cmpxchg operation.
If BspIndex has not been set, then do the lock cmpxchg, otherwise,
the APs don't need to lock cmpxchg the BspIndex value since the BSP
election has been done. It's the optimization to lower the resource
contention caused by the atomic compare exchange operation, so as to
improve the SMI performance for BSP election.
