I don't think it is good way to define GCC_VISIBILITY_PROTECTED and apply it in EntryPointLib. We only need to expose _ModuleEntryPoint. It has been specified in LINK_FLAGS in tools_def.txt. Could we also specify its attribute in CC_FLAGS or LINK_FLAGS in tools_def.txt?
It seems this does the trick as well

Note that * at the end: this is necessary since _ModuleEntryPoint will
be called _ModuleEntryPoint.lto_priv.xxx in the LTO objects.

I will drop this patch, and add this hunk to GccBase.lds instead.

Subject: [edk2] [PATCH v5 7/8] MdePkg GCC/X64: avoid 'hidden' visibility for
module entry points

When building with LTO enabled, the LTO routines infer from the 'hidden'
visibility of the _ModuleEntryPoint symbol that its code only needs to be
retained if it is referenced internally, and disregards the fact that
it is referenced by the entry point field in the ELF metadata.

This is arguably a bug in LTO, but we can work around it by ensuring that
the _ModuleEntryPoint symbol is emitted with protected visibility instead.
