If Checksum fails

Do we have enough update slots for all CPUs?

If there are more blocks required to support the unique processor steppings 

than update blocks provided by the BIOS

exit

Do we need any update blocks at all?  If not, we are done

Record updates for processors in NVRAM.

Issue the WriteUpdate function
