Update the "Memory layout on FVP platforms" section in the Firmware
Design document to reflect the overlaying of BL1 and BL2 images
by BL3-1 and BL3-2.
Also update the Porting Guide document to mention the
BL31_PROGBITS_LIMIT and BL32_PROGBITS_LIMIT constants.

- Add support for loading a BL3-0 image in BL2. Information about
memory extents is populated by platform-specific code. Subsequent
handling of BL3-0 is also platform specific.
The BL2 main function has been broken down to improve readability.
The BL3-2 image is now loaded before the BL3-3 image to align with
the boot flow.
- Build system: Add support for specifying a BL3-0 image that will be
included into the FIP image.
- IO FIP driver: Add support for identifying a BL3-0 image inside a
FIP image.
- Update the documentation to reflect the above changes.

This patch re-organizes the memory layout on FVP as to give the
BL3-2 image as much memory as possible.
Considering these two facts:
- not all images need to live in memory at the same time. Once
in BL3-1, the memory used by BL1 and BL2 can be reclaimed.
- when BL2 loads the BL3-1 and BL3-2 images, it only considers the
PROGBITS sections of those 2 images. The memory occupied by the
NOBITS sections will be touched only at execution of the BL3-x
images;
Then it is possible to choose the different base addresses such that
the NOBITS sections of BL3-1 and BL3-2 overlay BL1 and BL2.
On FVP we choose to put:
- BL1 and BL3-1 at the top of the Trusted RAM, with BL3-1 NOBITS
sections overlaying BL1;
- BL3-2 at the bottom of the Trusted RAM, with its NOBITS sections
overlaying BL2;
This is illustrated by the following diagram:
0x0404_0000 ------------ ------------------
| BL1 | <= | BL3-1 NOBITS |
------------ <= ------------------
| | <= | BL3-1 PROGBITS |
------------ ------------------
| BL2 | <= | BL3-2 NOBITS |
------------ <= ------------------
| | <= | BL3-2 PROGBITS |
0x0400_0000 ------------ ------------------
New platform-specific constants have been introduced to easily check
at link time that BL3-1 and BL3-2 PROGBITS sections don't overwrite
BL1 and BL2. These are optional and the platform code is free to define
them or not. If not defined, the linker won't attempt to check
image overlaying.

Refactor the FVP gic code in plat/fvp/fvp_gic.c to be a generic ARM
GIC driver in drivers/arm/gic/arm_gic.c. Provide the platform
specific inputs in the arm_gic_setup() function so that the driver
has no explicit dependency on platform code.
Provide weak implementations of the platform interrupt controller
API in a new file, plat/common/plat_gic.c. These simply call through
to the ARM GIC driver.
Move the only remaining FVP GIC function, fvp_gic_init() to
plat/fvp/aarch64/fvp_common.c and remove plat/fvp/fvp_gic.c

Changed the fvp_config array in fvp_common.c into a struct and
moved into a new optional common platform header,
include/plat/common/plat_config.h. Removed the config definitions
in fvp_def.h and updated all references to the platform config.
This makes the interface to the platform config cleaner and uses
a little less RAM.

Currently the TCR bits are hardcoded in xlat_tables.c. In order to
map higher physical address into low virtual address, the TCR bits
need to be configured accordingly.
This patch is to save the max VA and PA and calculate the TCR.PS/IPS
and t0sz bits in init_xlat_tables function.

There was already a rudimentary mechanism to detect whether BL1
R/W data was loaded at the top or bottom of memory. Basically,
- either BL1 was loaded at the very end of the trusted RAM
- in all other cases BL1 was considered sitting at the bottom of
the memory and the memory usage structure was updated accordingly,
potentially resulting in critical memory waste.
For instance, if BL1 R/W base address was set to
(TZRAM_END - 4096 - bl1_size), it would virtually occupy the whole
memory.
This patch improves the mechanism to detect the location of BL1
to avoid such scenarios.

This concept is no longer required since we now support loading of
images at fixed addresses only.
The image loader now automatically detects the position of the image
inside the current memory layout and updates the layout such that
memory fragmentation is minimised.
The 'attr' field of the meminfo data structure, which used to hold
the bottom/top loading information, has been removed. Also the 'next'
field has been removed as it wasn't used anywhere.
The 'init_bl2_mem_layout()' function has been moved out of common
code and put in BL1-specific code. It has also been renamed into
'bl1_init_bl2_mem_layout'.

The code in the FVP port which checks the platform type and
revision information in the SYS_ID register strictly supported
only the first revision of the Base and Foundation FVPs.
The current check also does not reflect the fact that the
board revision field is 'local' to the board type (HBI field).
Support for a new Foundation model is required now, and the
checking code is relaxed to allow execution (with a diagnostic)
on unrecognised revisions of the Base and Foundation FVP.

Many of the interfaces internal to PSCI pass the current CPU
MPIDR_EL1 value from function to function. This is not required,
and with inline access to the system registers is less efficient
than requiring the code to read that register whenever required.
This patch remove the mpidr parameter from the affected interfaces
and reduces code in FVP BL3-1 size by 160 bytes.

The 'plat_print_gic_regs' macro was accessing the GICC_CTLR register
using the GICD_CTLR offset. This still generates the right code in
the end because GICD_CTLR == GICC_CTLR but this patch fixes it for
the logic of the code.

The bakery lock code currently expects the calling code to pass
the MPIDR_EL1 of the current CPU.
This is not always done correctly. Also the change to provide
inline access to system registers makes it more efficient for the
bakery lock code to obtain the MPIDR_EL1 directly.
This change removes the mpidr parameter from the bakery lock
interface, and results in a code reduction of 160 bytes for the
ARM FVP port.

The array of affinity nodes is currently allocated for 32 entries
with the PSCI_NUM_AFFS value defined in psci.h. This is not enough
for large systems, and will substantially over allocate the array
for small systems.
This patch introduces an optional platform definition
PLATFORM_NUM_AFFS to platform_def.h. If defined this value is
used for PSCI_NUM_AFFS, otherwise a value of two times the number
of CPU cores is used.
The FVP port defines PLATFORM_NUM_AFFS to be 10 which saves
nearly 1.5KB of memory.

psci_suspend_context is an array of cache-line aligned structures
containing the single power_state integer per cpu. This array is
the only structure indexed by the aff_map_node.data integer.
This patch saves 2KB of BL3-1 memory by placing the CPU
power_state value directly in the aff_map_node structure. As a
result, this value is now never cached and the cache clean when
writing the value is no longer required.

Consolidate all BL3-1 CPU context initialization for cold boot, PSCI
and SPDs into two functions:
* The first uses entry_point_info to initialize the relevant
cpu_context for first entry into a lower exception level on a CPU
* The second populates the EL1 and EL2 system registers as needed
from the cpu_context to ensure correct entry into the lower EL
This patch alters the way that BL3-1 determines which exception level
is used when first entering EL1 or EL2 during cold boot - this is now
fully determined by the SPSR value in the entry_point_info for BL3-3,
as set up by the platform code in BL2 (or otherwise provided to BL3-1).
In the situation that EL1 (or svc mode) is selected for a processor
that supports EL2, the context management code will now configure all
essential EL2 register state to ensure correct execution of EL1. This
allows the platform code to run non-secure EL1 payloads directly
without requiring a small EL2 stub or OS loader.

This patch removes the reinitialisation of memory mapped system timer
registers after a warm boot for the FVP. The system timers in FVP are
in the 'Always ON' power domain which meant the reinitialisation was
redundant and it could have conflicted with the setup the normal
world has done.
The programming of CNTACR(x) and CNTNSAR, the system timer registers,
are removed from the warm boot path with this patch.

This patch prepares the per-cpu pointer cache for wider use by:
* renaming the structure to cpu_data and placing in new header
* providing accessors for this CPU, or other CPUs
* splitting the initialization of the TPIDR pointer from the

* moving the crash stack initialization to a crash stack function
* setting the TPIDR pointer very early during boot
