The list of upstream platforms on the index page is growing
quite long, especially with all the FVP variants being listed
individually.
This patch leverages the "Platform Ports" chapter in the docs
table of contents to condense this information. Almost all
platform ports now have documentation, so the table of
contents serves as the list of upstream platforms by itself.
For those upstream platforms that do not have corresponding
documentation, the top-level "Platform Ports" page mentions
them individually. It also mentions each Arm FVP, just as
the index page did before.
Note that there is an in-progress patch that creates new
platform port documentation for the Arm Juno and Arm FVP
platforms, so this list of "other platforms" will soon be
reduced further as those platforms become part of the
table of contents as well.

The index.rst page is now the primary landing page for the TF-A
documentation. It contains quite a lot of content these days,
including:
- The project purpose and general intro
- A list of functionality
- A list of planned functionality
- A list of supported platforms
- "Getting started" links to other documents
- Contact information for raising issues
This patch creates an "About" chapter in the table
of contents and moves some content there. In order,
the above listed content:
- Stayed where it is. This is the right place for it.
- Moved to About->Features
- Moved to About->Features (in subsection)
- Stayed where it is. Moved in a later patch.
- Was expanded in-place
- Moved to About->Contact

The WARMBOOT_ENABLE_DCACHE_EARLY allows caches to be turned on early during
the boot. But the xlat_change_mem_attributes_ctx() API did not do the required
cache maintenance after the mmap tables are modified if
WARMBOOT_ENABLE_DCACHE_EARLY is enabled. This meant that when the caches are turned
off during power down, the tables in memory are accessed as part of cache
maintenance for power down, and the tables are not correct at this point which
results in a data abort.
This patch removes the optimization within xlat_change_mem_attributes_ctx()
when WARMBOOT_ENABLE_DCACHE_EARLY is enabled.

We would need to update this version for the release but, in fact,
it is not required for our publishing workflow; the hosted version
of the docs uses git commit/tag information in place of these
variables anyway.
Instead of updating the version, just remove these variables
entirely.

The version of the Linaro release that is used for testing was
updated in 35010bb8 and the user guide was updated with the
correct version, however the version is also mentioned on the
index page and that was missed. Update the index page with the
new version.
We can come back and de-duplicate this content later, to ease
future maintenance.

The readme.rst file in the project root is the front-page that
is displayed on Github and if viewing the TF-A repository on
git.trustedfirmware.org in the "about" view. It now contains a
small amount of stub content, and directs readers to the
ReadTheDocs documentation via trustedfirmware.org/docs/tf-a.
The Github renderer is displaying the content fine but the cgit
viewer displays some "backlink" errors because some content
substitutions were left in place (terms surrounded by pipe
symbols), e.g. |TF-A|.
This patch removes those substitutions, that are not supported
by cgit, and also updates one heading to clarify where to find
the new docs.

The readme.rst and license.rst files in the project root overlap
with the index.rst and license.rst files in the docs/ folder. We
need to use the latter when building the documentation, as Sphinx
requires all included files to be under a common root. However,
the files in the root are currently used by the cgit and Github
viewers.
Using symlinks in Git presents some difficulties so the best
course of action is likely to leave these files but in stub form.
The license.rst file in the root will simply tell the reader to
refer to docs/license.rst.
The readme.rst file will contain a small amount of content that
is derived from the docs/index.rst file, so that the Github main
page will have something valid to show, but it will also contain
a link to the full documentation on ReadTheDocs.

Currently links between documents are using the format:
<path/to/><filename>.rst
This was required for services like GitHub because they render each
document in isolation - linking to another document is like linking
to any other file, just provide the full path.
However, with the new approach, the .rst files are only the raw
source for the documents. Once the documents have been rendered
the output is now in another format (HTML in our case) and so,
when linking to another document, the link must point to the
rendered version and not the .rst file.
The RST spec provides a few methods for linking between content.
The parent of this patch enabled the automatic creation of anchors
for document titles - we will use these anchors as the targets for
our links. Additional anchors can be added by hand if needed, on
section and sub-section titles, for example.
An example of this new format, for a document with the title
"Firmware Design" is :ref:`Firmware Design`.
One big advantage of this is that anchors are not dependent on
paths. We can then move documents around, even between directories,
without breaking any links between documents. Links will need to be
updated only if the title of a document changes.

Coherent I-cache is causing a prefetch violation where when the core
executes an instruction that has recently been modified, the core might
fetch a stale instruction which violates the ordering of instruction
fetches.
The workaround includes an instruction sequence to implementation
defined registers to trap all EL0 IC IVAU instructions to EL3 and a trap
handler to execute a TLB inner-shareable invalidation to an arbitrary
address followed by a DSB.

Make the spinlock implementation use ARMv8.1-LSE CAS instruction based
on a platform build option. The CAS-based implementation used to be
unconditionally selected for all ARM8.1+ platforms.
The previous CAS spinlock implementation had a bug wherein the spin_unlock()
implementation had an `sev` after `stlr` which is not sufficient. A dsb is
needed to ensure that the stlr completes prior to the sev. Having a dsb is
heavyweight and a better solution would be to use load exclusive semantics
to monitor the lock and wake up from wfe when a store happens to the lock.
The patch implements the same.
