I tried building OvmfPkg/OvmfPkgX64.dsc with XCODE5 (with Apple Clang 
12.0.5 from XCode 13.1) and it failed with the following error:


/Users/bcran/src/uefi/edk2/OvmfPkg/Library/VmgExitLib/VmgExitVcHandler.c:1875:9: 
error: variable 'Compacted' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' 
condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
     if (EcxIn == 1) {
         ^~~~~~~~~~
