According to the documentation, platforms may choose to trade memory
footprint for performance (and elegancy) by not providing a separately
mapped coherent page.
Since a debug build is getting close to the SRAM size limit already, this
allows us to save about 3.5KB of BSS and have some room for future
enhancements.

At the moment we map as much of the DRAM into EL3 as possible, however
we actually don't use it. The only exception is the secure DRAM for
BL32 (if that is configured).
To decrease the memory footprint of ATF, we save on some page tables by
reducing the memory mapping to the actually required regions: SRAM, device
MMIO, secure DRAM and U-Boot (to be used later).
This introduces a non-identity mapping for the DRAM regions.

So far we already support booting on two different SoCs, and we will
shortly add a third, so add some code to determine the current SoC type.
This can be later used to runtime detect certain properties.
Also print the SoC name to the console, to give valuable debug information.

There is nothing we need from the BootROM area, so we also don't need
to map it in EL3.
Remove the mapping and reduce the number of MMAP regions by one.

Some code in sunxi_common.c requires symbols defined in sunxi_private.h,
so add the header to that file.
It was included via another header before, but let's make this explicit.

This platform supports Allwinner's SoCs with ARMv8 cores. So far they
all sport a single cluster of Cortex-A53 cores.
"sunxi" is the original code name used for this platform, and since it
appears in the Linux kernel and in U-Boot as well, we use it here as a
short file name prefix and for identifiers.
This port includes BL31 support only. U-Boot's SPL takes the role of the
primary loader, also doing the DRAM initialization. It then loads the
rest of the firmware, namely ATF and U-Boot (BL33), then hands execution
over to ATF.
This commit includes the basic platform code shared across all SoCs.
There is no platform.mk yet.
[Andre: moved files into proper directories, supported RESET_TO_BL31,
various clean ups and simplifications ]
