Indeed. It's a bit unfortunate that this path is shared by all users of
OVMF. And from a previous email on edk2-devel I can see that QEMU / KVM
is also trying to deal with this now with different approach --
modifying MemMapInitialization -- that would not work with Xen. 

(What is interesting is that QEMU_PEI_INFO is very similar to what I
proposed for Xen in my RFC email. ;-) )

I cannot come up with a sensible solution for all platforms, so it makes
sense for me to keep and maintain a separate path, given that the path
is relatively short and straightforward.

Makes sense, I will fix this.

Wei.
