The changes look good to me, thanks!

In this particular case, the updates do not invalidate my 
"Regression-tested-by" given under v14:

https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/63921

"""
For all patches except #10 ("UefiPayloadPkg: Prepare UefiPayloadPkg to use the 
VmgExitLib library") and #46 ("Maintainers.txt: Add reviewers for the OvmfPkg 
SEV-related files"):

Regression-tested-by: Laszlo Ersek <ler...@redhat.com> """

So whoever merges this series should please apply that to the respective 
patches.

[Liming] Got it. This patch set has passed all review. I will help merge it for 
this stable tag stable202008. 

Thanks!
Laszlo
