Hi Liming,

You're right, it doesn't make sense to define this PCD on other architectures 
and it is not necessary.
I wrote this patch before patch 1 (MdeModulePkg: Restrict libraries using SMM 
to x86).
With the other patch, this PCD is not used on other architectures, so *we can 
drop this patch*.

Thanks,
Daniel

Subject: RE: [PATCH v2 2/3] MdeModulePkg: Set PcdDxeIplSwitchToLongMode false 
on non-x86

Daniel:
  PcdDxeIplSwitchToLongMode is only used in IA32 arch. It is also specified in 
[FeaturePcd.IA32] section of DxeIpl.inf. So, I don't understand why defines 
this PCD in other ARCH in MdeModulePkg.dec.

Thanks
Liming
