to include the resource needed by platform SMI handlers.
To be specific, if a platform overrides StmPlatformLib to access some special MSR, these MSR
must be in the resource list.
7) NOTE:
A platform BIOS CPU driver may put APs to MWAIT state and assume no one touch this APs.
This assumption is wrong, because FRM need wait up APs. FrmLoader uses mMpService->EnableDisableAP()
to disable/enable AP.
The CPU driver need use INIT-SIPI-SIPI to wake up AP, after the AP is disabled/enabled.
D. How to build STM BIOS with TXT capability.
NOTE: MinnowMax does not have TXT support. Below steps are for a platform which has TXT support.
