  For IA32 CPUs, the PEI Services Table pointer is stored in the 4 bytes

  For X64 CPUs, the PEI Services Table pointer is stored in the 8 bytes 
  immediately preceding the Interrupt Descriptor Table (IDT) in memory.
  For Itanium and ARM CPUs, a the PEI Services Table Pointer is stored in
  a dedicated CPU register.  This means that there is no memory storage 
  associated with storing the PEI Services Table pointer, so no additional 
  migration actions are required for Itanium or ARM CPUs.
