Amol,

FixedPcdGet32() does not apply to this use case.

FixedPcdGet32() is usually only used when a PCD value 
is used to fill in a field of a structure in a global
variable where the compiler requires a value instead
of a variable or a function call.

The general rule is to use PcdGet/Setxx() everywhere 
possible to maximize compatibility with different
PCD types and only use FixedPcdGet/Setxx() if the
compiler cannot build the component when
PcdGet/Setxx() is used.

Thanks,

Mike
