Mike:
  The long term goal is to remove IntelFrameworkPkg. I propose to remove its 
contents step by step. Now, some unused modules or header files are very clear. 
They can be removed now. But, others (such as Legacy definitions) are still 
consumed by LegacyBios and 8259/8254 drivers. We have no solution or clear plan 
to drop legacy support. They may still be kept for a while. 

Thanks
Liming
