The Smm Base HOB is used to store the relocated SmBase in
array for each Processors. If gSmmBaseHobGuid produced,
indicate SmBase for each Processors have been relocated.
The SmBase address in hob can be guaranteed the SMRAM state
save areas for all processors do not overlap.

+/** @file
+  The Smm Base HOB is used to store the information of:
+  * The relocated SmBase in array for each Processors.
+
+  If gSmmBaseHobGuid produced, indicate SmBase for each Processors
+  have been relocated and SmBase in HOB can be guaranteed the SMRAM
+  state save areas for all processors do not overlap. SMM CPU driver
+  should retrieve the SMBASE addresses from this HOB and installs the
+  SMI handler at [SMBASE+8000h] for each processor instead of relocating
+  SMM Base addresses from SMRAM again.
+
+  With SMM Base Hob, SMM CPU driver doesn't need the RSM instruction
+  to reload the SMBASE register with the new allocated value in SMBASE
+  field each time it exits SMM. SMBASE Register for each processors
+  have already been programmed in parallel since the same default
+  SMBASE Address (0x30000) is not used, thus the CPUs over-writing
+  each other's SMM Save State Area will not happen. This way will save
+  boot time on multi-core system.
