    Juno: Change the Firmware update detect mechanism · 7b56928a

    Previously, Juno used to depend on the SSC_GPRETN register to inform
    about the reset syndrome. This method was removed when SCP migrated
    to the SDS framework. But even the SDS framework doesn't report the
    reset syndrome correctly and hence Juno failed to enter Firmware
    update mode if BL2 authentication failed.
    
    In addition to that, the error code populated in V2M_SYS_NVFLAGS register
    does not seem to be retained any more on Juno across resets. This could
    be down to the motherboard firmware not doing the necessary to preserve
    the value.
    
    Hence this patch modifies the Juno platform to use the same mechanism to
    trigger firmware update as FVP which is to corrupt the FIP TOC on
    authentication failure. The implementation in `fvp_err.c` is made common
    for ARM platforms and is moved to the new `arm_err.c` file in
    plat/arm/common folder. The BL1 and BL2 mmap table entries for Juno
    are modified to allow write to the Flash memory address.
