The Trusted firmware code identifies BL images by name. The platform
port defines a name for each image e.g. the IO framework uses this
mechanism in the platform function plat_get_image_source(). For
a given image name, it returns the handle to the image file which
involves comparing images names. In addition, if the image is
packaged in a FIP, a name comparison is required to find the UUID
for the image. This method is not optimal.
This patch changes the interface between the generic and platform
code with regard to identifying images. The platform port must now
allocate a unique number (ID) for every image. The generic code will
use the image ID instead of the name to access its attributes.
As a result, the plat_get_image_source() function now takes an image
ID as an input parameter. The organisation of data structures within
the IO framework has been rationalised to use an image ID as an index
into an array which contains attributes of the image such as UUID and
name. This prevents the name comparisons.
A new type 'io_uuid_spec_t' has been introduced in the IO framework
to specify images identified by UUID (i.e. when the image is contained
in a FIP file). There is no longer need to maintain a look-up table
[iname_name --> uuid] in the io_fip driver code.
Because image names are no longer mandatory in the platform port, the
debug messages in the generic code will show the image identifier
instead of the file name. The platforms that support semihosting to
load images (i.e. FVP) must provide the file names as definitions
private to the platform.
The ARM platform ports and documentation have been updated accordingly.
All ARM platforms reuse the image IDs defined in the platform common
code. These IDs will be used to access other attributes of an image in
subsequent patches.
IMPORTANT: applying this patch breaks compatibility for platforms that
use TF BL1 or BL2 images or the image loading code. The platform port
must be updated to match the new interface.

Add SP804 delay timer support to the FVP BSP.
This commit simply provides the 3 constants needed by the SP804
delay timer driver and calls sp804_timer_init() in
bl2_platform_setup(). The BSP does not currently use the delay
timer functions.
Note that the FVP SP804 is a normal world accessible peripheral
and should not be used by the secure world after transition
to the normal world.

This patch fixes the incorrect bit width used to extract the wakeup
reason from PSYSR in platform_get_entrypoint() function. This defect
did not have any observed regression.

On ARM standard platforms, snoop and DVM requests used to be enabled
for the primary CPU's cluster only in the first EL3 bootloader.
In other words, if the platform reset into BL1 then CCI coherency
would be enabled by BL1 only, and not by BL3-1 again.
However, this doesn't cater for platforms that use BL3-1 along with
a non-TF ROM bootloader that doesn't enable snoop and DVM requests.
In this case, CCI coherency is never enabled.
This patch modifies the function bl31_early_platform_setup() on
ARM standard platforms so that it always enables snoop and DVM
requests regardless of whether earlier bootloader stages have
already done it. There is no harm in executing this code twice.
ARM Trusted Firmware Design document updated accordingly.

Fix the return type of the FVP `plat_arm_topology_setup` function
to be `void` instead of `int` to match the declaration in
`plat_arm.h`.
This does not result in any change in behavior.

Move the FVP port from plat/fvp to plat/arm/board/fvp. Also rename
some of the files so they are consistently prefixed with fvp_.
Update the platform makefiles accordingly.
