Hi Jiewen,

Responses below.  

A couple require some comments from Sean or Bret.

It is not a must, but since this library class is designed
to manage a versioned header structure with extensibility
in mind, I do not see anything wrong with V1 in the name.

In many cases the exiting use of a 2 suffix in the EDK II
is because the original one was not intending multiple
versions but an issue was discovered later that required
a new version.

Maybe we should use SafeIntLib service instead?

I agree they are inconsistent.  These APIs are the same
as the ones from MS_UEFI GitHub branch and I did not change
the API design.  It appears that some of the APIs in 
the FmpDeviceLib are optimized for how they are used by the
FmpDxe component.

No.

Yes.  This simplified Firmware Management Protocol
Implementation does not support Get/Set PackageInfo().
The UEFI Specification allows these APIs to return
EFI_UNSUPPORTED, and for this firmware update use
case they are not required.  If a Firmware Management
Protocol implementation requires Get/Set PackageInfo()
then FmpDxe should not be used.

Does the UEFI Specification require the compare on set?
If not, then is there any harm in doing this check?

That is a good point.  Maybe Sean had another use case in mind?

I was equally surprised.  I thought it may be a special argument
to the EDK II specific lock protocol.  Maybe it is a feature
that was not included in the MS_UEFI branch.
