The assertion in console_putc() would trigger a recursion that
exhausts the stack and eventually aborts.

This patch replaces the assertion with an error return if the
console has not been initialized yet.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#208

Before attempting to write a character, the PL011 driver polls
the PL011_UARTFR_TXFF bit to know whether the UART FIFO is full.
However, the comparison with 1 was incorrect because
PL011_UARTFR_TXFF is not at bit 0. This patch fixes it.

Previously, platform.h contained many declarations and definitions
used for different purposes. This file has been split so that:

* Platform definitions used by common code that must be defined
  by the platform are now in platform_def.h. The exact include
  path is exported through $PLAT_INCLUDES in the platform makefile.

* Platform definitions specific to the FVP platform are now in
  /plat/fvp/fvp_def.h.

* Platform API declarations specific to the FVP platform are now
  in /plat/fvp/fvp_private.h.

* The remaining platform API declarations that must be ported by
  each platform are still in platform.h but this file has been
  moved to /include/plat/common since this can be shared by all
  platforms.

This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.

This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.

panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.

The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#79 Improve reporting of unhandled exception

Reduce the number of header files included from other header
files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
"#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.

Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#31

Move almost all system include files to a logical sub-directory
under ./include. The only remaining system include directories
not under ./include are specific to the platform. Move the
corresponding source files to match the include directory
structure.

Also remove pm.h as it is no longer used.

Rename drivers/console/console.c to
drivers/arm/peripherals/pl011/pl011_console.c. This makes it clear
that this is a pl011 specific console implementation.

This patch reworks the console driver to ensure that each bootloader stage
initializes it independently. As a result, both BL3-1 and BL2 platform code
now calls console_init() instead of relying on BL1 to perform console setup

This commit isolates the accessor functions in pl011.c and builds
a wrapper layer for console functions.

This also modifies the console driver to use the pl011 FIFO.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#63

This patch adds the ability to specify the base address of a UART
device for initialising the console. This allows a boot loader stage
to use a different UART device from UART0 (default) for the console.
