The old version of the macro is deprecated.

Commit cc5859ca

 ("Multi-console: Deprecate the
`finish_console_register` macro") provides more details.

The `finish_console_register` macro is used by the multi console
framework to register the `console_t` driver callbacks. It relied
on weak references to the `ldr` instruction to populate 0 to the
callback in case the driver has not defined the appropriate
function. Use of `ldr` instruction to load absolute address to a
reference makes the binary position dependant. These instructions
should be replaced with adrp/adr instruction for position independant
executable(PIE). But adrp/adr instructions don't work well with weak
references as described in GNU ld bugzilla issue 22589.

This patch defines a new version of `finish_console_register` macro
which can spcify which driver callbacks are valid and deprecates the
old one. If any of the argument is not specified, then the macro
populates 0 for that callback. Hence the functionality of the previous
deprecated macro is preserved. The USE_FINISH_CONSOLE_REG_2 define
is used to select the new variant of the macro and will be removed
once the deprecated variant is removed.

All the upstream console drivers have been migrated to use the new
macro in this patch.

NOTE: Platforms be aware that the new variant of the
`finish_console_register` should be used and the old variant is
deprecated.

This patch overhauls the console API to allow for multiple console
instances of different drivers that are active at the same time. Instead
of binding to well-known function names (like console_core_init),
consoles now provide a register function (e.g. console_16550_register())
that will hook them into the list of active consoles. All console
operations will be dispatched to all consoles currently in the list.

The new API will be selected by the build-time option MULTI_CONSOLE_API,
which defaults to ${ERROR_DEPRECATED} for now. The old console API code
will be retained to stay backwards-compatible to older platforms, but
should no longer be used for any newly added platforms and can hopefully
be removed at some point in the future.

The new console API is intended to be used for both normal (bootup) and
crash use cases, freeing platforms of the need to set up the crash
console separately. Consoles can be individually configured to be active
active at boot (until first handoff to EL2), at runtime (after first
handoff to EL2), and/or after a crash. Console drivers should set a sane
default upon registration that can be overridden with the
console_set_scope() call. Code to hook up the crash reporting mechanism
to this framework will be added with a later patch.

This patch only affects AArch64, but the new API could easily be ported
to AArch32 as well if desired.

This function ensures that console output is flushed, for example
before shutting down or use by another component

In line with other console APIs, console_flush() wraps
console_core_flush().

Also implement console_core_flush() for PL011.

This patch moves the various assembly console drivers
into `aarch64` architecture specific folder. Stub files,
which include files from new location, are retained at the
original location for platform compatibility reasons.

This patch changes the type of the base address parameter in the
ARM device driver APIs to uintptr_t (GIC, CCI, TZC400, PL011). The
uintptr_t type allows coverage of the whole memory space and to
perform arithmetic operations on the addresses. ARM platform code
has also been updated to use uintptr_t as GIC base address in the
configuration.

Separate out the common console functionality in
`drivers/arm/pl011/pl011_console.S` into a new source file
`drivers/console/console.S`. The former includes the latter to
provide backwards compatibility for platform make files.

Also add a skeleton console implementation for platforms that do not
want to use PL011.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.

To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.

The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.

This patch adds baud rate and UART clock frequency as parameters
to the pl011 driver api console_init(). This allows each platform
to specify UART clock and baud rate according to their specific
hardware implementation.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#215

Change-Id: Id13eef70a1c530e709b34dd1e6eb84db0797ced2

This patch replaces the pl011 console family of functions
with their equivalents defined in assembly. The baud rate is
defined by the PL011_BAUDRATE macro and IBRD and FBRD values
for pl011 are computed statically. This patch will enable
us to invoke the console functions without the C Runtime Stack.
