Subject: [PATCH 5/6] MdeModulePkg/PiSmmCore: remove NX attr for SMM RAM

If PcdDxeNxMemoryProtectionPolicy is set to enable protection for memory of 
EfiReservedMemoryType, the BIOS will hang at a page fault exception during 
starting SMM driver.

The root cause is that SMM RAM is type of EfiReservedMemoryType and marked as 
non-executable. The fix is simply removing NX attribute for those memory.
