Subject: [edk2-devel] [Patch V4] UefiCpuPkg:Limit PhysicalAddressBits in 
special case

When creating smm page table, limit maximum supported physical addresses bits 
returned by
CalculateMaximumSupportAddress() to 47 if 5-Level Paging is disabled.

This commit is to avoid issue that more than 47-bit physical addresses are 
requested in smm page table when 5-level paging is disabled.
4-level paging supports translating 48-bit linear addresses to 52-bit physical 
addresses.
Since linear addresses are sign-extended, linear-address space of 4-level 
paging is:
[0, 2^47-1] and
[0xffff8000_00000000, 0xffffffff_ffffffff].
So only [0, 2^47-1] linear-address range maps to the identical physical-address 
range when 5-Level paging is disabled.
