#### BL3-0 (System Control Processor Firmware) image load
Some systems have a separate System Control Processor (SCP) for power, clock,
reset and system control. BL2 loads the optional BL3-0 image from platform
storage into a platform-specific region of secure memory. The subsequent
handling of BL3-0 is platform specific. Typically the image is transferred into
SCP memory using a platform-specific protocol. The SCP executes BL3-0 and
signals to the Application Processor (AP) for BL2 execution to continue.
