Sure, I don't want take away that flexibility.  A caller might also
prepare page tables for a paging mode not matching the current CPU
paging mode (i.e. 32-bit PEI preparing page tables for 64-bit DXE).

> Maybe, a lib API to detect 1G paging capability can be added to CpuLib.

Yep, that is exactly what I think would be useful.  Add a

	PAGING_MODE PageTableBestMode(VOID);

function with this code to CpuPageTableLib, so callers have the option
to use

	PagingMode = PageTableBestMode();

instead of duplicating the code block.

take care,
  Gerd
