The psci implementation does not track target affinity level requests
specified during cpu_suspend calls correctly as per the following
example.

1. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as 0
2. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
   powered up
3. cpu1.cluster0 calls cpu_off to power itself down to highest
   possible affinity level
4. cluster0 will be powered off even though cpu0.cluster0 does not
   allow cluster shutdown

This patch introduces reference counts at affinity levels > 0 to track
the number of cpus which want an affinity instance at level X to
remain powered up. This instance can be turned off only if its
reference count is 0. Cpus still undergo the normal state transitions
(ON, OFF, ON_PENDING, SUSPEND) but the higher levels can only be
either ON or OFF depending upon their reference count.

The above issue is thus fixed as follows:

1. cluster0's reference count is incremented by two when cpu0 and cpu1
   are initially powered on.

2. cpu0.cluster0 calls cpu_suspend with the target affinity level as
   0. This does not affect the cluster0 reference count.

3. Only the cpu0.cluster0 is powered down while cluster0 remains
   powered up as it has a non-zero reference count.

4. cpu1.cluster0 call cpu_off to power itself down to highest possible
   affinity level. This decrements the cluster0 reference count.

5. cluster0 is still not powered off since its reference count will at
   least be 1 due to the restriction placed by cpu0.

This patch adds support to save and restore the target affinity level
specified during a cpu_suspend psci call. This ensures that we
traverse only through the affinity levels that we originally intended
to after resuming from suspend.

The secure context saved and restored across a cpu_suspend operation
can be more than just the state of the secure system registers e.g. we
also need to save the affinity level till which the cpu is being
powered down. This patch creates a suspend_context data structure
which includes the system register context. This will allow other bits
to be saved and restored as well in subsequent patches.

The GICv3 distributor can have more ports than CPUs are available in
the system. Probe all re-distributors and use the matching affinity
levels as specified by each core and re-distributor to decide which
re-distributor to use with which CPU core.

If a core cannot be matched with a re-distributor, the core panics and
is placed in an endless loop.

Traps when accessing architectural features are disabled by clearing bits
in CPTR_EL3 during early boot, including accesses to floating point
registers. The value of this register was previously undetermined, causing
unwanted traps to EL3. Future EL3 code (for example, context save/restore
code) may use floating point registers, although they are not used by current
code.

Also, the '-mgeneral-regs-only' flag is enabled in the GCC settings to
prevent generation of code that uses floating point registers.

Platform setup code has to reserve some memory for storing the
memory layout information.  It is populated in early platform setup
code.

blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions used to return a copy of this
structure.  This patch modifies blx_get_sec_mem_layout() functions
so that they now directly return a pointer to their memory layout
structure.  It ensures that the memory layout returned by
blx_get_sec_mem_layout() is always up-to-date and also avoids a
useless copy of the meminfo structure.

Also rename blx_get_sec_mem_layout() to blx_plat_sec_mem_layout()
to make it clear those functions are platform specific.

Change-Id: I086509fb75111b6e9f93b7f6dbcd33cc4591b9f3

This patch performs a major rework of the psci generic implementation
to achieve the following:

1. replace recursion with iteration where possible to aid code
   readability e.g. affinity instance states are changed iteratively
   instead of recursively.

2. acquire pointers to affinity instance nodes at the beginning of a
   psci operation. All subsequent actions use these pointers instead
   of calling psci_get_aff_map_node() repeatedly e.g. management of
   locks has been abstracted under functions which use these pointers
   to ensure correct ordering. Helper functions have been added to
   create these abstractions.

3. assertions have been added to cpu level handlers to ensure correct
   state transition

4. the affinity level extents specified to various functions have the
   same meaning i.e. start level is always less than the end level.

This patch:

1. removes a duplicate assertion to check that the only error
   condition that can be returned while turning a cpu off is
   PSCI_E_DENIED. Having this assertion after calling
   psci_afflvl_off() is sufficient.

2. corrects some incorrect usage of 'its' vs 'it is'

3. removes some unwanted white spaces

This patch removes the duplicate declaration of psci_cpu_on in psci.h
and moves the constants for the system level implementation of the
generic timer from arch_helpers.h to arch.h. All other architectural
constants are defined in arch.h so there is no need to add them to
arch_helpers.h

In the previous psci implementation, the psci_afflvl_power_on_finish()
function would run into an error condition if the value of the context
id parameter in the cpu_on and cpu_suspend psci calls was != 0. The
parameter was being restored as the return value of the affinity level
0 finisher function. A non zero context id would be treated as an
error condition. This would prevent successful wake up of the cpu from
a power down state. Also, the contents of the general purpose
registers were not being cleared upon return to the non-secure world
after a cpu power up. This could potentially allow the non-secure
world to view secure data.

This patch ensures that all general purpose registers are set to ~0
prior to the final eret that drops the execution to the non-secure
world. The context id is used to initialize the general purpose
register x0 prior to re-entry into the non-secure world and is no
longer restored as a function return value. A platform helper
(platform_get_stack()) has been introduced to facilitate this change.

This patch fixes the following constant values in the psci.h:

1. The affinity level shift value in the power_state parameter of the
   cpu_suspend psci call. The previous value was preventing shutdown
   of the affinity level 1.

2. The values used for affinity state constants (ON, OFF,
   ON_PENDING). They did not match the values expected to be returned
   by the affinity_info psci api as mentioned in the spec.

3. The state id shift value in the power_state parameter of the
   cpu_suspend psci call.

The FVP specific code that gets called after a cpu has been physically
powered on after having been turned off or suspended earlier does not
clear the PWRC.PWKUPR.WEN bit. Not doing so causes problems if: a cpu
is suspended, woken from suspend, powered down through a cpu_off call
& receives a spurious interrupt. Since the WEN bit is not cleared
after the cpu woke up from suspend, the spurious wakeup will power the
cpu on. Since the cpu_off call clears the jump address in the mailbox
this spurious wakeup will cause the cpu to crash.

This patch fixes this issue by clearing the WEN bit whenever a cpu is
powered up.

The runtime exception handling assembler code used magic numbers for
saving and restoring the general purpose register context on stack
memory. The memory is interpreted as a 'gp_regs' structure and the
magic numbers are offsets to members of this structure. This patch
replaces the magic number offsets with constants. It also adds compile
time assertions to prevent an incorrect assembler view of this
structure.
