soc/intel/alderlake: Remove dependency of FSP-S CpuMpPei Module
This patch fixes a hidden issue present inside FSP-S while coreboot
decides to skip performing MP initialization by overriding FSP-S UPDs
as below:
1. CpuMpPpi ------> Passing `NULL` as coreboot assume FSP don't need
to use coreboot wrapper for performing any
operation over APs.
2. SkipMpInit -----> Set `1` to let FSP know that coreboot decided
to skip FSP running CPU feature programming.
Unfortunately, the assumption of coreboot is not aligned with FSP when
it comes to the behaviour of `CpuMpPpi` UPD. FSP assumes ownership of
the APs (Application Processors) upon passing `NULL` pointer to the
`CpuMpPpi` FSP-S UPD.
FSP-S creates its own infrastructure code after seeing the CpuMpPpi
UPD is set to `NULL`. FSP requires the CpuMpPei module, file name `UefiCpuPkg/CpuMpPei/CpuMpPei.c`, function name `InitializeCpuMpWorker`
to perform those additional initialization which is not relevant for
the coreboot upon selecting the SkipMpInit UPD to 1 (a.k.a avoid
running CPU feature programming on APs).
Additionally, FSP-S binary size has increased by ~30KB (irrespective of
being compressed) with the inclusion of the CpuMpPei module, which is
eventually not meaningful for coreboot.
Hence, this patch selects `MP_SERVICES_PPI_V2_NOOP` config
unconditionally to ensure pass a valid pointer to the `CpuMpPpi` UPD
and avoid APs getting hijacked by FSP while coreboot decides to set
SkipMpInit UPD.
Ideally, FSP should have avoided all AP related operations when
coreboot requested FSP to skip MP init by overriding required UPDs.
TEST=Able to drop CpuMpPei Module from FSP and boot to Chrome OS on
Google/Redrix, Kano, Taeko devices with SkipMpInit=1.
Without this patch:
Here is the CPU AP logs coming from the EDK2 (open-source)
[UefiCpuPkg/CpuMpPei/CpuMpPei.c] when coreboot sets `NULL` to the
CpuMpPpi UPD.
