Subject: [Patch MBR endless loop hang with invalid LBA0 1/1] MdeModulePkg/PartitionDxe: Add break to handle invalid LBA0 in MBR
Read Disk does a modification of ExtMbrStartingLba with the code MultU64x32
(ExtMbrStartingLba, BlockSize) Error detection to see if ExtMbrStartingLBA
has a value of 0. This is invalid as LBA 0 = MBR. After modification, the
next time ExtMbrStartingLba is in this function if ExtMbrStartingLba is set
to 0 in the MBR it never passes the while/do evaluation It is multiplied by 0
by read disk , set to 0 by an invalid MBR and goes back to evaluation This
condition will also cause Ws19 and WS22 to hang, however Microsoft has
developed a hotfix patch that will be released in 2022

Seems the indent includes 2 unneeded spaces. I will help to remove them when merging the patch.

Will wait a couple of days before merging to see if comments from other reviewers.
