Re: [edk2-devel] [PATCH v1] UefiCpuPkg/MpInitLib: Always get CPUID & PlatformID in MicrocodeDetect()

["Siyuan, Fu" <siyuan.fu@intel.com>]

Hi, Hao

If CPUID and PlatformID will always be collected in MicrocodeDetect(), is the change in 999463 redundant now? Should we remove that code?

Best Regards
Siyuan
