This patch includes:

1) Update and refine functions/header files comments
2) Try to use LinkedList library instance produced by BaseLib but not access linked list via pointer directly.

 #/** @file

-#  Component description file for DataHub module.

-#

 #  This driver initializes and installs the Data Hub protocol.

+#

+#  The data hub is a volatile database that is intended as the major focus for the accumulation of

+#  manageability data.T he hub is fed by "producers" with chunks of data in a defined format.

+#  Consumers may then extract the data in temporal "log" order.As an example, progress codes might

+#  be recorded in the data hub for future processing.Ot her data contributed to the data hub might

+#  include, for example, statistics on enumerated items such as memory, add-in buses, and add-in

+#  cards and data on errors encountered during boot (for example, the system did not boot off the

+#  network because the cable was not plugged in).

+#  Some classes of data have defined formats.For example, the amount of memory in the system is

+#  reported in a standard format so that consumers can be written to extract the data.O ther data is

+#  system specific.For example, additional detail on errors might be specific to the driver that

+#  discovered the error.The consumer might be a driver that tabularizes data from the data hub,

+#  providing a mechanism for the raw data to be made available to the OS for post-processing by

+#  OS-based applications.

+#  The intent of the data hub is for drivers that enumerate and configure parts of the system to report

+#  their discoveries to the data hub.This data can then be extracted by other drivers that report those

+#  discoveries using standard manageability interfaces such as SMBIOS and Intelligent Platform

+#  Management Interface (IPMI).The alternative to a data-hub-like architecture is to require all

+#  drivers to be aware of all reporting formats.
