Various CPU drivers in ARM Trusted Firmware register functions to handle
power-down operations. At present, separate functions are registered to
power down individual cores and clusters.
This scheme operates on the basis of core and cluster, and doesn't cater
for extending the hierarchy for power-down operations. For example,
future CPUs might support multiple threads which might need powering
down individually.
This patch therefore reworks the CPU operations framework to allow for
registering power down handlers on specific level basis. Henceforth:
- Generic code invokes CPU power down operations by the level
required.
- CPU drivers explicitly mention CPU_NO_RESET_FUNC when the CPU has no
reset function.
- CPU drivers register power down handlers as a list: a mandatory
handler for level 0, and optional handlers for higher levels.
All existing CPU drivers are adapted to the new CPU operations framework
without needing any functional changes within.

This patch adds cpumerrsr_el1 and l2merrsr_el1 to the register dump on
error for applicable CPUs.
These registers hold the ECC errors on L1 and L2 caches.
This patch updates the A53, A57, A72, A73 (l2merrsr_el1 only) CPU libraries.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.
To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.
The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.
