This patch performs a major rework of the psci generic implementation
to achieve the following:
1. replace recursion with iteration where possible to aid code
readability e.g. affinity instance states are changed iteratively
instead of recursively.
2. acquire pointers to affinity instance nodes at the beginning of a
psci operation. All subsequent actions use these pointers instead
of calling psci_get_aff_map_node() repeatedly e.g. management of
locks has been abstracted under functions which use these pointers
to ensure correct ordering. Helper functions have been added to
create these abstractions.
3. assertions have been added to cpu level handlers to ensure correct
state transition
4. the affinity level extents specified to various functions have the
same meaning i.e. start level is always less than the end level.
