    Initialise CPU contexts from entry_point_info · 167a9357

    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.
