Instead of invoking gDS->SetMemorySpaceAttributes to set the EFI_MEMORY_XP
attribute on newly added regions, which is guaranteed to fail if the same
attribute was not declared as a capability of the region when it as added,
invoke the CPU arch protocol directly to set the EFI_MEMORY_XP attribute
if our memory protection policy demands it.
