Rename mPageAttributesInitialized to mGcdSyncComplete and Clarify Intent
Description mPageAttributesInitialized was used to signal that the memory protection initialization routine was complete so EFI_MEMORY_RP can be safely set on free memory. However, the blocker to setting EFI_MEMORY_RP on free memory is not the initialization of the page attributes, but the completion of the GCD sync. This change renames mPageAttributesInitialized to mGcdSyncComplete to better reflect the intent of the variable. Additionally, it makes more sense to not change what GetPermissionAttributeForMemoryType() returns based on the value of mGcdSyncComplete. Instead, it should always return the permission attributes which should be applied to the memory type but ApplyMemoryProtectionPolicy() should bail if the GCD sync has not been completed. - [x] Impacts functionality? - **Functionality** - Does the change ultimately impact how firmware functions? - Examples: Add a new library, publish a new PPI, update an algorithm, ... - [x] Impacts security? - **Security** - Does the change have a direct security impact on an application, flow, or firmware? - Examples: Crypto algorithm change, buffer overflow fix, parameter validation improvement, ... - [ ] Breaking change? - **Breaking change** - Will anyone consuming this change experience a break in build or boot behavior? - Examples: Add a new library class, move a module to a different repo, call a function in a new library class in a pre-existing module, ... - [ ] Includes tests? - **Tests** - Does the change include any explicit test code? - Examples: Unit tests, integration tests, robot tests, ... - [ ] Includes documentation? - **Documentation** - Does the change contain explicit documentation additions outside direct code modifications (and comments)? - Examples: Update readme file, add feature readme file, link to documentation on an a separate Web page, ...
