The TSP used to execute from secure DRAM on the FVPs because there was
not enough space in Trusted SRAM to fit it in. Thanks to recent RAM
usage enhancements being implemented, we have made enough savings for
the TSP to execute in SRAM.

However, there is no contiguous free chunk of SRAM big enough to hold
the TSP. Therefore, the different bootloader images need to be moved
around to reduce memory fragmentation. This patch keeps the overall
memory layout (i.e. keeping BL1 R/W at the bottom, BL2 at the top and
BL3-1 in between) but moves the base addresses of all the bootloader
images in such a way that:
 - memory fragmentation is reduced enough to fit BL3-2 in;
 - new base addresses are suitable for release builds as well as debug
   ones;
 - each image has a few extra kilobytes for future growth.
   BL3-1 and BL3-2 are the images which received the biggest slice
   of the cake since they will most probably grow the most.

A few useful numbers for reference (valid at the time of this patch):

        |  image size (debug)   |  extra space for the future

Although on FVPs the TSP now executes from Trusted SRAM by default,
this patch keeps the option to execute it from Trusted DRAM. This is
controlled by the build configuration 'TSP_RAM_LOCATION'.

Fixes ARM-Software/tf-issues#81

The TSP's linker script used to assume that the TSP would
execute from secure DRAM. Although it is currently the case
on FVPs, platforms are free to use any secure memory they wish.

This patch introduces the flexibility to load the TSP into any
secure memory. The platform code gets to specify the extents of
this memory in the platform header file, as well as the BL3-2 image
limit address. The latter definition allows to check in a generic way
that the BL3-2 image fits in its bounds.

The issues addressed in this patch are:

1. Remove meminfo_t from the common interfaces in BL3-x,
expecting that platform code will find a suitable mechanism
to determine the memory extents in these images and provide
it to the BL3-x images.

2. Remove meminfo_t and bl31_plat_params_t from all FVP BL3-x
code as the images use link-time information to determine
memory extents.

meminfo_t is still used by common interface in BL1/BL2 for
loading images

On FVP, the file 'plat/fvp/aarch64/plat_helpers.S' contains an
FVP-specific implementation of the function 'plat_report_exception()',
which is meant to override the default implementation. However, this
file was not included into the BL3-2 image, meaning it was still
using the default implementation. This patch fixes the FVP makefile
to compile this file in.

Instead of having a single version of the MMU setup functions for all
bootloader images that can execute either in EL3 or in EL1, provide
separate functions for EL1 and EL3. Each bootloader image can then
call the appropriate version of these functions. The aim is to reduce
the amount of code compiled in each BL image by embedding only what's
needed (e.g. BL1 to embed only EL3 variants).

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.

Add tag names to all unnamed structs in header files. This
allows forward declaration of structs, which is necessary to
reduce header file nesting (to be implemented in a subsequent
commit).

Also change the typedef names across the codebase to use the _t
suffix to be more conformant with the Linux coding style. The
coding style actually prefers us not to use typedefs at all but
this is considered a step too far for Trusted Firmware.

Also change the IO framework structs defintions to use typedef'd
structs to be consistent with the rest of the codebase.

Remove all usage of the vpath keyword in makefiles as it was prone
to mistakes. Specify the relative paths to source files instead.

Also reorder source files in makefiles alphabetically.

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.

The BL images share common stack management code which provides
one coherent and one cacheable stack for every CPU. BL1 and BL2
just execute on the primary CPU during boot and do not require
the additional CPU stacks. This patch provides separate stack
support code for UP and MP images, substantially reducing the
RAM usage for BL1 and BL2 for the FVP platform.

This patch also provides macros for declaring stacks and
calculating stack base addresses to improve consistency where
this has to be done in the firmware.

The stack allocation source files are now included via
platform.mk rather than the common BLx makefiles. This allows
each platform to select the appropriate MP/UP stack support
for each BL image.

Each platform makefile must be updated when including this
commit.

This extends the --gc-sections behaviour to the many assembler
support functions in the firmware images by placing each function
into its own code section. This is achieved by creating a 'func'
macro used to declare each function label.

All common functions are being built into all binary images,
whether or not they are actually used. This change enables the
use of -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections
in the compiler and linker to remove unused code and data from
the images.

bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S used to be re-used by BL2, BL3-1 and
BL3-2.  There was some early SMC handling code in there that was not
required by the other bootloader stages.  Therefore this patch
introduces an even simpler exception vector source file for BL2,
BL3-1 and BL3-2.

The Test Secure-EL1 Payload implementation should always have a
platform-specific component.  Therefore, there should always
be a platform-specific sub-makefile for the TSP.  If there is
none then assume TSP is not supported on this specific platform
and throw an error at build time if the user tries to compile it.

At present, the entry point for each BL image is specified via the
Makefiles and provided on the command line to the linker. When using a
link script the entry point should rather be specified via the ENTRY()
directive in the link script.

This patch updates linker scripts of all BL images to specify the entry
point using the ENTRY() directive. It also removes the --entry flag
passed to the linker through Makefile.

This change requires all platforms to now specify a list of source files
rather than object files.

New source files should preferably be specified by using the path as
well and we should add this in the future for all files so we can remove
use of vpath. This is desirable because vpath hides issues like the fact
that BL2 currently pulls in a BL1 file bl1/aarch64/early_exceptions.S
and if in the future we added bl2/aarch64/early_exceptions.S then it's
likely only one of the two version would be used for both bootloaders.

This change also removes the 'dump' build target and simply gets
bootloaders to always generate a dump file. At the same time the -x
option is added so the section headers and symbols table are listed.

This patch reworks the service provided by the TSP to perform common
arithmetic operations on a set of arguments provided by the non-secure
world. For a addition, division, subtraction & multiplication operation
requested on two arguments in x0 and x1 the steps are:

1. TSPD saves the non-secure context and passes the operation and its
   arguments to the TSP.

2. TSP asks the TSPD to return the same arguments once again. This
   exercises an additional SMC path.

3. TSP now has two copies of both x0 and x1. It performs the operation
   on the corresponding copies i.e. in case of addition it returns x0+x0
   and x1+x1.

4. TSPD receives the result, saves the secure context, restores the
   non-secure context and passes the result back to the non-secure
   client.

This patch implements a set of handlers in the SPD which are called by
the PSCI runtime service upon receiving a power management
operation. These handlers in turn pass control to the Secure Payload
image if required before returning control to PSCI. This ensures that
the Secure Payload has complete visibility of all power transitions in
the system and can prepare accordingly.

This patch adds the TSPD service which is responsible for managing
communication between the non-secure state and the Test Secure Payload
(TSP) executing in S-EL1.

The TSPD does the following:

1. Determines the location of the TSP (BL3-2) image and passes control
   to it for initialization. This is done by exporting the 'bl32_init()'
   function.

2. Receives a structure containing the various entry points into the TSP
   image as a response to being initialized. The TSPD uses this
   information to determine how the TSP should be entered depending on
   the type of operation.

3. Implements a synchronous mechanism for entering into and returning
   from the TSP image. This mechanism saves the current C runtime
   context on top of the current stack and jumps to the TSP through an
   ERET instruction. The TSP issues an SMC to indicate completion of the
   previous request. The TSPD restores the saved C runtime context and
   resumes TSP execution.

This patch also introduces a Make variable 'SPD' to choose the specific
SPD to include in the build. By default, no SPDs are included in the
build.

This patch adds a simple TSP as the BL3-2 image. The secure payload
executes in S-EL1. It paves the way for the addition of the TSP
dispatcher runtime service to BL3-1. The TSP and the dispatcher service
will serve as an example of the runtime firmware's ability to toggle
execution between the non-secure and secure states in response to SMC
request from the non-secure state.  The TSP will be replaced by a
Trusted OS in a real system.

The TSP also exports a set of handlers which should be called in
response to a PSCI power management event e.g a cpu being suspended or
turned off. For now it runs out of Secure DRAM on the ARM FVP port and
will be moved to Secure SRAM later. The default translation table setup
code assumes that the caller is executing out of secure SRAM. Hence the
TSP exports its own translation table setup function.

The TSP only services Fast SMCs, is non-reentrant and non-interruptible.
It does arithmetic operations on two sets of four operands, one set
supplied by the non-secure client, and the other supplied by the TSP
dispatcher in EL3. It returns the result according to the Secure Monitor
Calling convention standard.

This TSP has two functional entry points:

- An initial, one-time entry point through which the TSP is initialized
  and prepares for receiving further requests from secure
  monitor/dispatcher

- A fast SMC service entry point through which the TSP dispatcher
  requests secure services on behalf of the non-secure client
