Commit Message

Now that ARM has grown support for managing memory permissions in
ArmMmuLib, we can enable the non-executable DXE stack for all virt
platforms.

Note that this is not [entirely] redundant: the non-executable stack
is configured before DxeCore is invoked. The image and memory protection
features configured during DXE only take affect when the CPU arch
protocol implementation is registered.

This doesn't just extend PcdSetNxForStack from AARCH64 from ARM, but
also from QEMU to Xen. Is that your intent? If so,

Yes, it is, but I will mention that in the commit log
