Hao Wu,

I see that implementations of this API are only
provided for IA32 and X64.  Should this be an IA32/X64
specific API in BaseLib?  Also, since the API is providing
a C callable function to execute a specific IA32/X64 
instruction, should the API be prefixed with Asm to 
match the convention of other APIs in BaseLib?

Thanks,

Mike
