This patch seems to only add the IN/OUT decorators on function parameters, which is a good change. However, it does not address any of my previous comments:
1. Why would you do this for 64 bit but not 32 bit? 2. Why don't you add the if statement to MpService.c instead of spreading it to PageTbl.c? 3. What is the reason for this anyway? Adding the conditional is probably more execution time than just reading CR2 always. I also share Andrew's concern that in the case of a periodic SMI happening during OS runtime, there is nothing preventing the handler of the periodic SMI from clobbering the value of CR2, which could potentially cause kernel panics once we return back from SMM to the OS. I am not aware of any periodic SMIs in OVMF, so I don't believe OVMF testing will catch these type of issues. I consider not doing the save/restore in the 32 bit SMM to be dangerous, especially since all recent platforms that I can think of don't use 32 bit SMM anymore, so any bug(s) introduced may go unnoticed for a long time.

This is not a bug but to have better improvement of code. Patch5 is updated with separate functions for Save and Restore of CR2 based on review feedback. Patch6 - Removed Global Cr2 instead used function parameter. Patch7 - Removed checking Cr2 with 0 as per feedback. Patch8 and 9 - Aligned with EDK2 Coding style.
