Always enable CCI coherency in BL3-1
On ARM standard platforms, snoop and DVM requests used to be enabled for the primary CPU's cluster only in the first EL3 bootloader. In other words, if the platform reset into BL1 then CCI coherency would be enabled by BL1 only, and not by BL3-1 again. However, this doesn't cater for platforms that use BL3-1 along with a non-TF ROM bootloader that doesn't enable snoop and DVM requests. In this case, CCI coherency is never enabled. This patch modifies the function bl31_early_platform_setup() on ARM standard platforms so that it always enables snoop and DVM requests regardless of whether earlier bootloader stages have already done it. There is no harm in executing this code twice. ARM Trusted Firmware Design document updated accordingly. Change-Id: Idf1bdeb24d2e1947adfbb76a509f10beef224e1c
