This reverts commit 2f37046524 ("Add support for the SMC Calling
Convention 2.0").
SMCCC v2.0 is no longer required for SPM, and won't be needed in the
future. Removing it makes the SMC handling code less complicated.
The SPM implementation based on SPCI and SPRT was using it, but it has
been adapted to SMCCC v1.0.

This buffer is where all the responses from Secure Partitions are stored
until they are requested.

This is done in order to make it easier to read the file spm_main.c.

Move all information related to a Secure Partition to the struct
secure_partition_context_t.
This requires an in-depth refactor because most of the previous code of
SPM relied on global information.

A Secure Partition is a software execution environment instantiated in
S-EL0 that can be used to implement simple management and security
services. Since S-EL0 is an unprivileged exception level, a Secure
Partition relies on privileged firmware e.g. ARM Trusted Firmware to be
granted access to system and processor resources. Essentially, it is a
software sandbox that runs under the control of privileged software in
the Secure World and accesses the following system resources:
- Memory and device regions in the system address map.
- PE system registers.
- A range of asynchronous exceptions e.g. interrupts.
- A range of synchronous exceptions e.g. SMC function identifiers.
A Secure Partition enables privileged firmware to implement only the
absolutely essential secure services in EL3 and instantiate the rest in
a partition. Since the partition executes in S-EL0, its implementation
cannot be overly complex.
The component in ARM Trusted Firmware responsible for managing a Secure
Partition is called the Secure Partition Manager (SPM). The SPM is
responsible for the following:
- Validating and allocating resources requested by a Secure Partition.
- Implementing a well defined interface that is used for initialising a
Secure Partition.
- Implementing a well defined interface that is used by the normal world
and other secure services for accessing the services exported by a
Secure Partition.
- Implementing a well defined interface that is used by a Secure
Partition to fulfil service requests.
- Instantiating the software execution environment required by a Secure
Partition to fulfil a service request.
