Hi Laszlo:
   8  667abfaf8a16 UefiCpuPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
   9  df49a85dbcc6 CorebootModulePkg: Removing ipf from edk2.
  10  04c7f9023ffe CorebootPayloadPkg: Removing ipf from edk2.
  11  4fcb0d54584f NetworkPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
  12  87f9867f5536 QuarkPlatformPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported 
from edk2.
  13  fda6abd64f02 QuarkSocPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
  14  22ec06c8aaa1 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg: Removing ipf which from edk2.

  These patches are in a patch series to remove IPF. The community review has 
been started a very long time before silent period.  And part of patch series 
was already in EDK2.
There is no source code change but only removes some useless sections in INF & 
DSC. And from feature complete perspective, I think it is OK to check-in.
Anyway, We will learn from this process and be more careful.

The following commits have been pushed since we entered the quiet period
(the last commit before it was 9e6c4f1527e6, "FmpDevicePkg FmpDxe: Lock
variables in entrypoint instead of callback"):

   1  3781f14c31e0 SecurityPkg/Library/Tpm2DeviceLibDTpm: fix 
s/Constructor/CONSTRUCTOR

This is a critical bugfix, satisfying the requirement.

   2  b3e1e343fe34 SecurityPkg: HashLib: Update HashLib file GUID

Can also be considered an important bugfix (GUID duplication), although
the commit does not name a TianoCore BZ.

   3  10ea1b6853f9 Maintainers.txt: Add FmpDevicePkg maintainers

Can be considered an important bugfix (no maintainers listed for a
top-level package). Misses a TianoCore BZ reference.

   4  45e076b7a720 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/Override/Bds: Add test key notification
   5  dc65dd5be697 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/Feature/Capsule: Add FmpDeviceLib instances
   6  d3049066ca25 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg/Capsule: Add scripts to generate capsules
   7  1aa9314e3a84 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg: Update DSC/FDF to use FmpDevicePkg

These commits violate the quiet period. They add a feature.

   8  667abfaf8a16 UefiCpuPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
   9  df49a85dbcc6 CorebootModulePkg: Removing ipf from edk2.
  10  04c7f9023ffe CorebootPayloadPkg: Removing ipf from edk2.
  11  4fcb0d54584f NetworkPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
  12  87f9867f5536 QuarkPlatformPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported 
from edk2.
  13  fda6abd64f02 QuarkSocPkg: Removing ipf which is no longer supported from 
edk2.
  14  22ec06c8aaa1 Vlv2TbltDevicePkg: Removing ipf which from edk2.

These commits also violate the quiet period. They implement a valid
cleanup, but not a critical bugfix. They should have been delayed.
