Leif asked me to include a note why this cannot be done when UpdateCapsule() is called. """ Note that this cache maintenance cannot be done during the invocation of UpdateCapsule(), since the ScatterGatherList structures are only identified by physical address, and at runtime, the firmware doesn't know whether and where this memory is mapped, and cache maintenance requires a virtual address.
