The TSP is expected to pass control back to EL3 if it gets preempted due to
an interrupt while handling a Standard SMC in the following scenarios:
1. An FIQ preempts Standard SMC execution and that FIQ is not a TSP Secure
timer interrupt or is preempted by a higher priority interrupt by the time
the TSP acknowledges it. In this case, the TSP issues an SMC with the ID
as `TSP_EL3_FIQ`. Currently this case is never expected to happen as only
the TSP Secure Timer is expected to generate FIQ.
2. An IRQ preempts Standard SMC execution and in this case the TSP issues
an SMC with the ID as `TSP_PREEMPTED`.
In both the cases, the TSPD hands control back to the normal world and returns
returns an error code to the normal world to indicate that the standard SMC it
had issued has been preempted but not completed.
This patch unifies the handling of these two cases in the TSPD and ensures that
the TSP only uses TSP_PREEMPTED instead of separate SMC IDs. Also instead of 2
separate error codes, SMC_PREEMPTED and TSP_EL3_FIQ, only SMC_PREEMPTED is
returned as error code back to the normal world.
Background information: On a GICv3 system, when the secure world has affinity
routing enabled, in 2. an FIQ will preempt TSP execution instead of an IRQ. The
FIQ could be a result of a Group 0 or a Group 1 NS interrupt. In both case, the
TSPD passes control back to the normal world upon receipt of the TSP_PREEMPTED
SMC. A Group 0 interrupt will immediately preempt execution to EL3 where it
will be handled. This allows for unified interrupt handling in TSP for both
GICv3 and GICv2 systems.

This patch adds support for SYSTEM_OFF and SYSTEM_RESET PSCI
operations. A platform should export handlers to complete the
requested operation. The FVP port exports fvp_system_off() and
fvp_system_reset() as an example.
If the SPD provides a power management hook for system off and
system reset, then the SPD is notified about the corresponding
operation so it can do some bookkeeping. The TSPD exports
tspd_system_off() and tspd_system_reset() for that purpose.
Versatile Express shutdown and reset methods have been removed
from the FDT as new PSCI sys_poweroff and sys_reset services
have been added. For those kernels that do not support yet these
PSCI services (i.e. GICv3 kernel), the original dtsi files have
been renamed to *-no_psci.dtsi.

* Move TSP platform porting functions to new file:
include/bl32/tsp/platform_tsp.h.
* Create new TSP_IRQ_SEC_PHY_TIMER definition for use by the generic
TSP interrupt handling code, instead of depending on the FVP
specific definition IRQ_SEC_PHY_TIMER.
* Rename TSP platform porting functions from bl32_* to tsp_*, and
definitions from BL32_* to TSP_*.
* Update generic TSP code to use new platform porting function names
and definitions.
* Update FVP port accordingly and move all TSP source files to:
plat/fvp/tsp/.
* Update porting guide with above changes.
Note: THIS CHANGE REQUIRES ALL PLATFORM PORTS OF THE TSP TO
BE UPDATED
