/**
  Allocates one or more 4KB pages of a given type from a memory region that is
  accessible to PEI.

  Allocates the number of 4KB pages of type 'MemoryType' and returns a
  pointer to the allocated buffer.  The buffer returned is aligned on a 4KB
  boundary.  If Pages is 0, then NULL is returned.  If there is not enough
  memory remaining to satisfy the request, then NULL is returned.

  @param[in]  MemoryType            The memory type to allocate
  @param[in]  Pages                 The number of 4 KB pages to allocate.

  @return A pointer to the allocated buffer or NULL if allocation fails.
