Soby Mathew ab8707e687 Remove coherent memory from the BL memory maps
This patch extends the build option `USE_COHERENT_MEMORY` to
conditionally remove coherent memory from the memory maps of
all boot loader stages. The patch also adds necessary
documentation for coherent memory removal in firmware-design,
porting and user guides.

Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#106

Juan Castillo 33132e643a Juno: Use the generic ARM GIC driver
This patch replaces the usage of the GIC private driver in Juno with
the generic ARM GIC driver. The private driver is no longer necessary
and has been removed from the Juno port.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#253

Soby Mathew 12d554f941 Rationalize UART usage among different BL stages
This patch changes the UART port assignment for various BL stages
so as to make it consistent on the platform ports. The BL1, BL2 and
BL3-1 now uses UART0 on the FVP port and SoC UART0 on the Juno port.
The BL3-2 uses UART2 on the FVP port and FPGA UART0 on the Juno
port.

This provides an interim fix to ARM-software/tf-issues#220 until
support is added for changing the UART port for a BL image between
cold boot and runtime.

Sandrine Bailleux edfda10a6b Juno: Add support for Test Secure-EL1 Payload
This patch implements the TSP on Juno. It executes from on-chip Trusted
SRAM.

Also, the other bootloader images (i.e. BL1 R/W, BL2 and BL3-1) have
been moved around. The reason is, although there was enough space
overall to store the TSP in SRAM, there was no contiguous free chunk
of SRAM big enough to hold it.

This patch keeps the overall memory layout (i.e. keeping BL1 R/W at
the bottom, BL2 at the top and BL3-1 in between) but moves the base
addresses of all the bootloader images in such a way that:
 - memory fragmentation is reduced enough to fit BL3-2 in;
 - new base addresses are suitable for release builds as well as debug
   ones;
 - each image has a few extra kilobytes for future growth.
   BL3-1 and BL3-2 are the images which received the biggest allocations
   since they will most probably grow the most.

This patch also adds instruction synchronization barriers around the code which
handles the timer interrupt in the TSP. This ensures that the interrupt is not
acknowledged after or EOIed before it is deactivated at the peripheral.
