This patch introduces the ability of the xlat tables library to manage
EL0 and EL1 mappings from a higher exception level.

Attributes MT_USER and MT_PRIVILEGED have been added to allow the user
specify the target EL in the translation regime EL1&0.

REGISTER_XLAT_CONTEXT2 macro is introduced to allow creating a
xlat_ctx_t that targets a given translation regime (EL1&0 or EL3).

A new member is added to xlat_ctx_t to represent the translation regime
the xlat_ctx_t manages. The execute_never mask member is removed as it
is computed from existing information.

The current implementation of the memory mapping API favours mapping
memory regions using the biggest possible block size in order to
reduce the number of translation tables needed.

In some cases, this behaviour might not be desirable. When translation
tables are edited at run-time, coarse-grain mappings like that might
need splitting into finer-grain tables. This operation has a
performance cost.

The MAP_REGION2() macro allows to specify the granularity of
translation tables used for the initial mapping of a memory region.
This might increase performance for memory regions that are likely to
be edited in the future, at the expense of a potentially increased
memory footprint.

The Translation Tables Library Design Guide has been updated to
explain the use case for this macro. Also added a few intermediate
titles to make the guide easier to digest.

Use a mmap_region_t as parameter instead of getting a parameter for each
structure member. This reduces the scope of changes when adding members
to mmap_region_t.

Also align on the convention of using mm_cursor as a variable name for
the currently inspected region when iterating on the region array.

mmap_add_region_ctx and mmap_add_dynamic_region_ctx are clearing members
that they are not aware of by copying each member one by one. Replace
this by structure assignment.

Use the MAP_REGION to build the mmap_region_t argument in wrappers like
mmap_add_region(). Evolution of the mmap_region_t might require adding
new members with a non-zero default value. Users of MAP_REGION are
protected against such evolution. This commit also protects users of
mmap_add_region() and mmap_add_dynamic_region() functions against these
evolutions.

Also make the MAP_REGION macro implementation more explicit and make it
a mmap_region_t compound literal to make it useable as a function
parameter on its own and to prevent using it in initialization of
variables of different type.

Previous patches have made it possible to specify the physical and
virtual address spaces sizes for each translation context. However,
there are still some places in the code where the physical (resp.
virtual) address space size is assumed to be PLAT_PHY_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE
(resp. PLAT_VIRT_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE).

This patch removes them and reads the relevant address space size
from the translation context itself instead. This information is now
passed in argument to the enable_mmu_arch() function, which needs it
to configure the TCR_ELx.T0SZ field (in AArch64) or the TTBCR.T0SZ
field (in AArch32) appropriately.

In both the AArch32 and AArch64 versions, this function used to check
the sanity of the PLAT_PHY_ADDR_SPACE_SIZE in regard to the
architectural maximum value. Instead, export the
xlat_arch_get_max_supported_pa() function and move the debug
assertion in AArch-agnostic code.

The AArch64 used to also precalculate the TCR.PS field value, based
on the size of the physical address space. This is now done directly
by enable_mmu_arch(), which now receives the physical address space size
in argument.

In a previous patch, the xlat_ctx_t type has been made public.
This patch now makes the *_ctx() APIs public.

Each API now has a *_ctx() variant. Most of them were already implemented
and this patch just makes them public. However, some of them were missing
so this patch introduces them.

Now that all these APIs are public, there's no good reason for splitting
them accross 2 files (xlat_tables_internal.c and xlat_tables_common.c).
Therefore, this patch moves all code into xlat_tables_internal.c and
removes xlat_tables_common.c. It removes it from the library's makefile
as well.

This last change introduces a compatibility break for platform ports
that specifically include the xlat_tables_common.c file instead of
including the library's Makefile. The UniPhier platform makefile has
been updated to now omit this file from the list of source files.

The prototype of mmap_add_region_ctx() has been slightly changed. The
mmap_region_t passed in argument needs to be constant because it gets
called from map_add(), which receives a constant region. The former
implementation of mmap_add() used to cast the const qualifier away,
which is not a good practice.

Also remove init_xlation_table(), which was a sub-function of
init_xlat_tables(). Now there's just init_xlat_tables() (and
init_xlat_tables_ctx()). Both names were too similar, which was
confusing. Besides, now that all the code is in a single file,
it's no longer needed to have 2 functions for that.

Move the header files that provide translation tables architectural
definitions from the library v2 source files to the library include
directory. This allows to share these definitions between both
versions (v1 and v2) of the library.

Create a new header file that includes the AArch32 or AArch64
definitions based on the AARCH32 build flag, so that the library user
doesn't have to worry about handling it on their side.

Also repurpose some of the definitions the header files provide to
concentrate on the things that differ between AArch32 and AArch64.
As a result they now contain the following information:
 - the first table level that allows block descriptors;
 - the architectural limits of the virtual address space;
 - the initial lookup level to cover the entire address space.

Additionally, move the XLAT_TABLE_LEVEL_MIN macro from
xlat_tables_defs.h to the AArch32/AArch64 architectural definitions.

This new organisation eliminates duplicated information in the AArch32
and AArch64 versions. It also decouples these architectural files from
any platform-specific information. Previously, they were dependent on
the address space size, which is platform-specific.

Finally, for the v2 of the library, move the compatibility code for
ADDR_SPACE_SIZE into a C file as it is not needed outside of this
file. For v1, this code hasn't been changed and stays in a header
file because it's needed by several files.

Translation regimes that only support one virtual address space (such as
the ones for EL2 and EL3) can flag memory regions as execute-never by
setting to 1 the XN bit in the Upper Attributes field in the translation
tables descriptors. Translation regimes that support two different
virtual address spaces (such as the one shared by EL1 and EL0) use bits
PXN and UXN instead.

The Trusted Firmware runs at EL3 and EL1, it has to handle translation
tables of both translation regimes, but the previous code handled both
regimes the same way, as if both had only 1 VA range.

When trying to set a descriptor as execute-never it would set the XN
bit correctly in EL3, but it would set the XN bit in EL1 as well. XN is
at the same bit position as UXN, which means that EL0 was being
prevented from executing code at this region, not EL1 as the code
intended. Therefore, the PXN bit was unset to 0 all the time. The result
is that, in AArch64 mode, read-only data sections of BL2 weren't
protected from being executed.

This patch adds support of translation regimes with two virtual address
spaces to both versions of the translation tables library, fixing the
execute-never permissions for translation tables in EL1.

The library currently does not support initializing translation tables
for EL0 software, therefore it does not set/unset the UXN bit. If EL1
software needs to initialize translation tables for EL0 software, it
should use a different library instead.

This patch modifies both versions of the translation table library
to use the mmap_attr_t type consistently wherever it is manipulating
MT_* attributes variables. It used to use mmap_attr_t or plain integer
types interchangeably, which compiles fine because an enumeration type
can be silently converted to an integer, but which is semantically
incorrect.

This patch removes this assumption by using the abstract type
'mmap_attr_t' all the time.

Added APIs to add and remove regions to the translation tables
dynamically while the MMU is enabled. Only static regions are allowed
to overlap other static ones (for backwards compatibility).

A new private attribute (MT_DYNAMIC / MT_STATIC) has been added to
flag each region as such.

The dynamic mapping functionality can be enabled or disabled when
compiling by setting the build option PLAT_XLAT_TABLES_DYNAMIC to 1
or 0. This can be done per-image.

TLB maintenance code during dynamic table mapping and unmapping has
also been added.

The printed output has been improved in two ways:

- Whenever multiple invalid descriptors are found, only the first one
  is printed, and a line is added to inform about how many descriptors
  have been omitted.

- At the beginning of each line there is an indication of the table
  level the entry belongs to. Example of the new output:
  `[LV3] VA:0x1000 PA:0x1000 size:0x1000 MEM-RO-S-EXEC`

The folder lib/xlat_tables_v2 has been created to store a new version
of the translation tables library for further modifications in patches
to follow. At the moment it only contains a basic implementation that
supports static regions.

This library allows different translation tables to be modified by
using different 'contexts'. For now, the implementation defaults to
the translation tables used by the current image, but it is possible
to modify other tables than the ones in use.

Added a new API to print debug information for the current state of
the translation tables, rather than printing the information while
the tables are being created. This allows subsequent debug printing
of the xlat tables after they have been changed, which will be useful
when dynamic regions are implemented in a patch to follow.

The common definitions stored in `xlat_tables.h` header have been moved
to a new file common to both versions, `xlat_tables_defs.h`.

All headers related to the translation tables library have been moved to
a the subfolder `xlat_tables`.
