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

This patch is based on spec published at
https://github.com/ARM-software/tf-issues/issues/133

It rearranges the bl31_args struct into
bl31_params and bl31_plat_params which provide the
information needed for Trusted firmware and platform
specific data via x0 and x1

On the FVP platform BL3-1 params and BL3-1 plat params
and its constituents are stored at the start of TZDRAM.

The information about memory availability and size for
BL3-1, BL3-2 and BL3-3 is moved into platform specific data.

This patch reworks the handover interface from: BL1 to BL2 and
BL2 to BL3-1. It removes the raise_el(), change_el(), drop_el()
and run_image() functions as they catered for code paths that were
never exercised.
BL1 calls bl1_run_bl2() to jump into BL2 instead of doing the same
by calling run_image(). Similarly, BL2 issues the SMC to transfer
execution to BL3-1 through BL1 directly. Only x0 and x1 are used
to pass arguments to BL31. These arguments and parameters for
running BL3-1 are passed through a reference to a
'el_change_info_t' structure. They were being passed value in
general purpose registers earlier.

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The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid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.

The TZC configuration on FVP was incorrectly allowing both secure
and non-secure accesses to the DRAM, which can cause aliasing
problems for software. It was also not enabling virtio access on
some models.

This patch fixes both of those issues. The patch also enabless
non-secure access to the DDR RAM for all devices with defined IDs.

The third region of DDR RAM has been removed from the configuration
as this is not used in any of the FVP models.

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).

Instead of using the system register helper functions to read
or write system registers, assembler coded functions should
use MRS/MSR instructions. This results in faster and more
compact code.

This change replaces all usage of the helper functions with
direct register accesses.

disable_mmu() cannot work as a C function as there is no control
over data accesses generated by the compiler between disabling and
cleaning the data cache. This results in reading stale data from
main memory.

disables the instruction cache which is now used by the BL1
exception handling function.

The current code does not always use data and instruction
barriers as required by the architecture and frequently uses
barriers excessively due to their inclusion in all of the
write_*() helper functions.

Barriers should be used explicitly in assembler or C code
when modifying processor state that requires the barriers in
order to enable review of correctness of the code.

This patch removes the barriers from the helper functions and
introduces them as necessary elsewhere in the code.

PORTING NOTE: check any port of Trusted Firmware for use of
system register helper functions for reliance on the previous
barrier behaviour and add explicit barriers as necessary.

Update code base to remove variables from the .data section,
mainly by using const static data where possible and adding
the const specifier as required. Most changes are to the IO
subsystem, including the framework APIs. The FVP power
management code is also affected.

Delay initialization of the global static variable,
next_image_type in bl31_main.c, until it is realy needed.
Doing this moves the variable from the .data to the .bss
section.

Also review the IO interface for inconsistencies, using
uintptr_t where possible instead of void *. Remove the
io_handle and io_dev_handle typedefs, which were
unnecessary, replacing instances with uintptr_t.

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.

- Use the TrustZone controller on Base FVP to program DRAM access
  permissions. By default no access to DRAM is allowed if
  'secure memory' is enabled on the Base FVP.
- The Foundation FVP does not have a TrustZone controller but instead
  has fixed access permissions.
- Update FDTs for Linux to use timers at the correct security level.
- Starting the FVPs with 'secure memory' disabled is also supported.

Limitations:
Virtio currently uses a reserved NSAID. This will be corrected in

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.

BL3-1 architecture setup code programs the system counter frequency
into the CNTFRQ_EL0 register. This frequency is defined by the
platform, though. This patch introduces a new platform hook that
the architecture setup code can call to retrieve this information.
In the ARM FVP port, this returns the first entry of the frequency
modes table from the memory mapped generic timer.

All system counter setup code has been removed from BL1 as some
platforms may not have initialized the system counters at this stage.
The platform specific settings done exclusively in BL1 have been moved
to BL3-1. In the ARM FVP port, this consists in enabling and
initializing the System level generic timer. Also, the frequency change
request in the counter control register has been set to 0 to make it
explicit it's using the base frequency. The CNTCR_FCREQ() macro has been
fixed in this context to give an entry number rather than a bitmask.

In future, when support for firmware update is implemented, there
is a case where BL1 platform specific code will need to program
the counter frequency. This should be implemented at that time.

This patch also updates the relevant documentation.

It properly fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#24

because it introduced a bug: the CNTFRQ_EL0 register was no
longer programmed by all CPUs.  bl31_platform_setup() function

to the counter frequency setup code.

Trusted firmware binaries loaded via semihosting used to be
opened using 'r' mode (i.e. read mode).  This is fine on POSIX
conforming systems (including Linux) but for Windows it also means
that the file should be opened in text mode. 'rb' mode must be
specified instead for binary mode.  On POSIX conforming systems,
'rb' mode is equivalent to 'r' mode so it does no harm.

At present, bl1_arch_setup() and bl31_arch_setup() program the counter
frequency using a value from the memory mapped generic timer. The
generic timer however is not necessarily present on all ARM systems
(although it is architected to be present on all server systems).

This patch moves the timer setup to platform-specific code and updates
the relevant documentation. Also, CNTR.FCREQ is set as the specification
requires the bit corresponding to the counter's frequency to be set when
enabling. Since we intend to use the base frequency, set bit 8.

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.
