Warnings 4018, 4100, 4101, 4127, 4214, 4244, 4456, 4701 and 4703 are
disabled as they were found to occur more than 5 times during QEMU
firmware compilation.

Also create a dummy macro for PRESERVE8, as this is not supported by
the Microsoft ARM assembler.

Pete:
  I suggest to align the disabled warning list to IA32/X64 arch. I find someone are not listed in IA32/X64 arch. Could you give the more detail on why disable them by default?

Thanks

Hi Liming,

Thanks for reviewing these patches.

As explained in the git comment, I chose to disable warnings that I saw 
being generated more than 5 times during QEMU compilation, as I suspect 
we may inherit things from gcc that we may not want to spend too much 
time changing, just to keep MSVC happy.

Considering that we are introducing a new target for MS users, it may be 
worth being a bit more lenient with warnings for the time being, so that 
people don't have to spend too much time addressing issues that they 
wouldn't get with other compilers (gcc, Clang), if they decide to try 
VS2017/ARM, as it may drive them off otherwise.

Especially, if we try to align ARM warnings with IA32/X64, then we're 
going to have to address at least 78 instances of C4244 warnings 
("conversion from 'type1' to 'type2', possible loss of data") in our ARM 
codebase eventually, which is probably not in our best interest.

For reference, here is the list of Level 4 compiler warnings I got, 
during QEMU compilation, along with the number of times they occurred:

C4018:   7
C4101:   6
C4132:   1
C4146:   3
C4244:  78
C4366:   1
C4389:   1
C4456:  10
C4701:  50
C4703:  48

This being said, I suspect most of the warnings above may not be 
generated when compiling regular UEFI ARM applications or drivers, as I 
only started to see those when trying to compile QEMU.

So, if you think that's preferable, we can proceed as you suggest, and 
align ARM disabled warnings with IA32 and X64. Then we can wait and see 
if users of VS2017/ARM start to complain that more warnings need to be 
disabled...

Regards,

/Pete
