Hi Feng,
   I see now that XhciPei needs gPeiUsbControllerPpiGuid and creates
gPeiUsbHostControllerPpiGuid  which UsbBusPei needs.

I can't seem to figure out what creates gPeiUsbControllerPpiGuid?  I see it
listed in the .dec file I'm using but that apparently isn't enough to
install the Ppi.   What should be installing the gPeiUsbControllerPpiGuid? 

Thanks,
Eric
