IntelFsp2WrapperPkg: Refine casting expression result to bigger size
There are cases that the operands of an expression are all with rank less than UINT64/INT64 and the result of the expression is explicitly cast to UINT64/INT64 to fit the target size. An example will be: UINT32 a,b; // a and b can be any unsigned int type with rank less than UINT64, like // UINT8, UINT16, etc. UINT64 c; c = (UINT64) (a + b); Some static code checkers may warn that the expression result might overflow within the rank of "int" (integer promotions) and the result is then cast to a bigger size. The commit refines codes by the following rules: 1). When the expression is possible to overflow the range of unsigned int/ int: c = (UINT64)a + b; 2). When the expression will not overflow within the rank of "int", remove the explicit type casts: c = a + b; 3). When the expression will be cast to pointer of possible greater size: UINT32 a,b; VOID *c; c = (VOID *)(UINTN)(a + b); --> c = (VOID *)((UINTN)a + b); 4). When one side of a comparison expression contains only operands with rank less than UINT32: UINT8 a; UINT16 b; UINTN c; if ((UINTN)(a + b) > c) {...} --> if (((UINT32)a + b) > c) {...} For rule 4), if we remove the 'UINTN' type cast like: if (a + b > c) {...} The VS compiler will complain with warning C4018 (signed/unsigned mismatch, level 3 warning) due to promoting 'a + b' to type 'int'.
