Hey Liming,

Thanks for your reply! Sure, that works as well, though usually I prefer to 
write a static function or a macro instead of repeating.
If you prefer this, I'll get a V2 ready that way. Though shouldn't it be ASSERT 
((!FeaturePcdGet (PcdVerifyNodeInList) || IsNodeInList (FirstEntry, 
SecondEntry)) && InternalBaseLibIsListValid (FirstEntry)); ?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't your suggestion not ASSERT if the feature 
is enabled, the entry is not in the list, but the list is valid? ((TRUE && 
FALSE) || TRUE) would return TRUE.

Thanks,
Marvin.
