    Rework handover interface between BL stages · 29fb905d
    Vikram Kanigiri authored
    This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and
    BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el()
    and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were
    never exercised.
    BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same
    by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer
    execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
    to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
    running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
    'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
    general purpose registers earlier.
