This patch introduces the following three platform interfaces:

* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_start(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to perform accounting before entering a low power state.  This
  typically involves capturing a timestamp.

* void plat_psci_stat_accounting_stop(const psci_power_state_t *state_info)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to perform accounting after exiting from a low power state.  This
  typically involves capturing a timestamp.

* u_register_t plat_psci_stat_get_residency(unsigned int lvl,
	const psci_power_state_t *state_info,
	unsigned int last_cpu_index)

  This is an optional hook that platforms can implement in order
  to calculate the PSCI stat residency.

If any of these interfaces are overridden by the platform, it is
recommended that all of them are.

By default `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` is disabled.  If `ENABLE_PSCI_STAT`
is set but `ENABLE_PMF` is not set then an alternative PSCI stat
collection backend must be provided.  If both are set, then default
weak definitions of these functions are provided, using PMF to
calculate the residency.

NOTE: Previously, platforms did not have to explicitly set
`ENABLE_PMF` since this was automatically done by the top-level
Makefile.

The user guide incorrectly claimed that it is possible to load a
bootwrapped kernel over JTAG on Juno in the same manner as an EL3
payload. In the EL3 payload boot flow, some of the platform
initialisations in BL2 are modified. In particular, the TZC settings
are modified to allow unrestricted access to DRAM. This in turn allows
the debugger to access the DRAM and therefore to load the image there.

In the BL33-preloaded boot flow though, BL2 uses the default TZC
programming, which prevent access to most of the DRAM from secure state.
When execution reaches the SPIN_ON_BL1_EXIT loop, the MMU is disabled
and thus DS-5 presumably issues secure access transactions while trying
to load the image, which fails.

One way around it is to stop execution at the end of BL2 instead. At
this point, the MMU is still enabled and the DRAM is mapped as
non-secure memory. Therefore, the debugger is allowed to access this
memory in this context and to sucessfully load the bootwrapped kernel in
DRAM. The user guide is updated to suggest this alternative method.

This patch updates the User Guide to recommend the latest version
of some of the software dependencies of ARM Trusted Firmware.

 - Upgrade Linaro release:     16.02 -> 16.06

 - Upgrade FVPs
    - Foundation v8 FVP:       9.5 -> 10.1
    - Base FVPs:               7.6 -> 7.7

 - Upgrade mbed TLS library:   2.2.0 -> 2.2.1

Note that the latest release of mbed TLS as of today is 2.3.0 but it has
compilations issues with the set of library configuration options that
Trusted Firmware uses. 2.2.1 is the next most recent release known to
build with TF.

This patch also fixes the markdown formatting of a link in the
User Guide.

This patch adds capability to load BL images based on image
descriptors instead of hard coded way of loading BL images.
This framework is designed such that it can be readily adapted
by any BL stage that needs to load images.

In order to provide the above capability the following new
platform functions are introduced:

  bl_load_info_t *plat_get_bl_image_load_info(void);
    This function returns pointer to the list of images that the
    platform has populated to load.

  bl_params_t *plat_get_next_bl_params(void);
    This function returns a pointer to the shared memory that the
    platform has kept aside to pass trusted firmware related
    information that next BL image needs.

  void plat_flush_next_bl_params(void);
    This function flushes to main memory all the params that
    are passed to next image.

  int bl2_plat_handle_post_image_load(unsigned int image_id)
    This function can be used by the platforms to update/use
    image information for given `image_id`.

`desc_image_load.c` contains utility functions which can be used
by the platforms to generate, load and executable, image list
based on the registered image descriptors.

This patch also adds new version of `load_image/load_auth_image`
functions in-order to achieve the above capability.

Following are the changes for the new version as compared to old:
  - Refactor the signature and only keep image_id and image_info_t
    arguments. Removed image_base argument as it is already passed
    through image_info_t. Given that the BL image base addresses and
    limit/size are already provided by the platforms, the meminfo_t
    and entry_point_info arguments are not needed to provide/reserve
    the extent of free memory for the given BL image.

  - Added check for the image size against the defined max size.
    This is needed because the image size could come from an
    unauthenticated source (e.g. the FIP header).
    To make this check, new member is added to the image_info_t
    struct for identifying the image maximum size.

New flag `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is added in the Makefile.
Default value is 0.

NOTE: `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT` is currently not supported when
      `LOAD_IMAGE_V2` is enabled.

This feature allows one to quickly verify that the expected
image is contained in the FIP without extracting the image and
running sha256sum(1) on it.

The sha256 digest is only shown when the verbose flag is used.

This change requires libssl-dev to be installed in order to build
Trusted Firmware. Previously, libssl-dev was optionally needed only
to support Trusted Board Boot configurations.

fiptool provides a more consistent and intuitive interface compared to
the fip_create program.  It serves as a better base to build on more
features in the future.

fiptool supports various subcommands.  Below are the currently
supported subcommands:

1) info   - List the images contained in a FIP file.
2) create - Create a new FIP file with the given images.
3) update - Update an existing FIP with the given images.
4) unpack - Extract a selected set or all the images from a FIP file.
5) remove - Remove images from a FIP file.  This is a new command that
   was not present in fip_create.

To create a new FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool create".

To update a FIP file, replace "fip_create" with "fiptool update".

To dump the contents of a FIP file, replace "fip_create --dump" with
"fiptool info".

A compatibility script that emulates the basic functionality of
fip_create is provided.  Existing scripts might or might not work with
the compatibility script.  Users are strongly encouraged to migrate to
fiptool.

Compile option `ARM_BOARD_OPTIMISE_MMAP` has been renamed to
`ARM_BOARD_OPTIMISE_MEM` because it now applies not only to defines
related to the translation tables but to the image size as well.

The defines `PLAT_ARM_MAX_BL1_RW_SIZE`, `PLAT_ARM_MAX_BL2_SIZE` and
`PLAT_ARM_MAX_BL31_SIZE` have been moved to the file board_arm_def.h.
This way, ARM platforms no longer have to set their own values if
`ARM_BOARD_OPTIMISE_MEM=0` and they can specify optimized values
otherwise. The common sizes have been set to the highest values used
for any of the current build configurations.

This is needed because in some build configurations some images are
running out of space. This way there is a common set of values known
to work for all of them and it can be optimized for each particular
platform if needed.

The space reserved for BL2 when `TRUSTED_BOARD_BOOT=0` has been
increased. This is needed because when memory optimisations are
disabled the values for Juno of `PLAT_ARM_MMAP_ENTRIES` and
`MAX_XLAT_TABLES` are higher. If in this situation the code is
compiled in debug mode and with "-O0", the code won't fit.

This patch adds following optional PSCI STAT functions:

- PSCI_STAT_RESIDENCY: This call returns the amount of time spent
  in power_state in microseconds, by the node represented by the
  `target_cpu` and the highest level of `power_state`.

- PSCI_STAT_COUNT: This call returns the number of times a
  `power_state` has been used by the node represented by the
  `target_cpu` and the highest power level of `power_state`.

These APIs provides residency statistics for power states that has
been used by the platform. They are implemented according to v1.0
of the PSCI specification.

By default this optional feature is disabled in the PSCI
implementation. To enable it, set the boolean flag
`ENABLE_PSCI_STAT` to 1. This also sets `ENABLE_PMF` to 1.

This patch adds Performance Measurement Framework(PMF) in the
ARM Trusted Firmware. PMF is implemented as a library and the
SMC interface is provided through ARM SiP service.

The PMF provides capturing, storing, dumping and retrieving the
time-stamps, by enabling the development of services by different
providers, that can be easily integrated into ARM Trusted Firmware.
The PMF capture and retrieval APIs can also do appropriate cache
maintenance operations to the timestamp memory when the caller
indicates so.

`pmf_main.c` consists of core functions that implement service
registration, initialization, storing, dumping and retrieving
the time-stamp.
`pmf_smc.c` consists SMC handling for registered PMF services.
`pmf.h` consists of the macros that can be used by the PMF service
providers to register service and declare time-stamp functions.
`pmf_helpers.h` consists of internal macros that are used by `pmf.h`

By default this feature is disabled in the ARM trusted firmware.
To enable it set the boolean flag `ENABLE_PMF` to 1.

NOTE: The caller is responsible for specifying the appropriate cache
maintenance flags and for acquiring/releasing appropriate locks
before/after capturing/retrieving the time-stamps.

The system registers that are saved and restored in CPU context include
AArch32 systems registers like SPSR_ABT, SPSR_UND, SPSR_IRQ, SPSR_FIQ,
DACR32_EL2, IFSR32_EL2 and FPEXC32_EL2. Accessing these registers on an
AArch64-only (i.e. on hardware that does not implement AArch32, or at
least not at EL1 and higher ELs) platform leads to an exception. This patch
introduces the build option `CTX_INCLUDE_AARCH32_REGS` to specify whether to
include these AArch32 systems registers in the cpu context or not. By default
this build option is set to 1 to ensure compatibility. AArch64-only platforms
must set it to 0. A runtime check is added in BL1 and BL31 cold boot path to
verify this.

To get round problems encountered when building in a DOS build
environment the generation of the .o file containing build identifier
strings is modified.
The problems encounterred were:
   1. DOS echo doesn't strip ' characters from the output text.
   2. git is not available from CMD.EXE so the BUILD_STRING value needs
      some other origin.

A BUILD_STRING value of "development build" is used for now.

MAKE_BUILD_STRINGS is used to customise build string generation in a DOS
environment. This variable is not defined in the UNIX build environment
make file helper, and so the existing build string generation behaviour
is retained in these build environments.

NOTE: This commit completes a cumulative series aimed at improving
      build portability across development environments.
      This enables the build to run on several new build environments,
      if the relevant tools are available.
      At this point the build is tested on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1,
      using CMD.EXE, Cygwin and Msys (MinGW),as well as a native
      Linux envionment".  The Windows platform builds used
      aarch64-none-elf-gcc.exe 4.9.1.  CMD.EXE and Msys used Gnu
      Make 3.81, cygwin used Gnu Make 4.1.

CAVEAT: The cert_create tool build is not tested on the Windows
        platforms (openssl-for-windows has a GPL license).

This patch adds an option to the ARM common platforms to load BL31 in the
TZC secured DRAM instead of the default secure SRAM.

To enable this feature, set `ARM_BL31_IN_DRAM` to 1 in build options.
If TSP is present, then setting this option also sets the TSP location
to DRAM and ignores the `ARM_TSP_RAM_LOCATION` build flag.

To use this feature, BL2 platform code must map in the DRAM used by
BL31. The macro ARM_MAP_BL31_SEC_DRAM is provided for this purpose.
Currently, only the FVP BL2 platform code maps in this DRAM.

Asynchronous abort exceptions generated by the platform during cold boot are
not taken in EL3 unless SCR_EL3.EA is set.

Therefore EA bit is set along with RES1 bits in early BL1 and BL31 architecture
initialisation. Further write accesses to SCR_EL3 preserve these bits during
cold boot.

A build flag controls SCR_EL3.EA value to keep asynchronous abort exceptions
being trapped by EL3 after cold boot or not.

For further reference SError Interrupts are also known as asynchronous external
aborts.

On Cortex-A53 revisions below r0p2, asynchronous abort exceptions are taken in
EL3 whatever the SCR_EL3.EA value is.

The common topology description helper funtions and macros for
ARM Standard platforms assumed a dual cluster system. This is not
flexible enough to scale to multi cluster platforms. This patch does
the following changes for more flexibility in defining topology:

1. The `plat_get_power_domain_tree_desc()` definition is moved from
   `arm_topology.c` to platform specific files, that is `fvp_topology.c`
   and `juno_topology.c`. Similarly the common definition of the porting
   macro `PLATFORM_CORE_COUNT` in `arm_def.h` is moved to platform
   specific `platform_def.h` header.

2. The ARM common layer porting macros which were dual cluster specific
   are now removed and a new macro PLAT_ARM_CLUSTER_COUNT is introduced
   which must be defined by each ARM standard platform.

3. A new mandatory ARM common layer porting API
   `plat_arm_get_cluster_core_count()` is introduced to enable the common
   implementation of `arm_check_mpidr()` to validate MPIDR.

4. For the FVP platforms, a new build option `FVP_NUM_CLUSTERS` has been
   introduced which allows the user to specify the cluster count to be
   used to build the topology tree within Trusted Firmare. This enables
   Trusted Firmware to be built for multi cluster FVP models.

Current code mandates loading of SCP_BL2/SCP_BL2U images for all
CSS platforms. On future ARM CSS platforms, the Application
Processor (AP) might not need to load these images. So, these
items can be removed from the FIP on those platforms.

BL2 tries to load  SCP_BL2/SCP_BL2U images if their base
addresses are defined causing boot error if the images are not
found in FIP.

This change adds a make flag `CSS_LOAD_SCP_IMAGES` which if set
to `1` does:
1. Adds SCP_BL2, SCP_BL2U images to FIP.
2. Defines the base addresses of these images so that AP loads
   them.

And vice-versa if it is set to `0`. The default value is set to

Currently, Trusted Firmware on ARM platforms unlocks access to the
timer frame registers that will be used by the Non-Secure world. This
unlock operation should be done by the Non-Secure software itself,
instead of relying on secure firmware settings.
