This patch optimizes the Cortex-A57 cluster power down sequence by not
flushing the Level1 data cache. The L1 data cache and the L2 unified
cache are inclusive. A flush of the L2 by set/way flushes any dirty
lines from the L1 as well. This is a known safe deviation from the
Cortex-A57 TRM defined power down sequence. This optimization can be
enabled by the platform through the 'SKIP_A57_L1_FLUSH_PWR_DWN' build
flag. Each Cortex-A57 based platform must make its own decision on
whether to use the optimization.

This patch also renames the cpu-errata-workarounds.md to
cpu-specific-build-macros.md as this facilitates documentation
of both CPU Specific errata and CPU Specific Optimization
build macros.

This the patch replaces the DSB SY with DSB ISH
after disabling L2 prefetches during the Cortex-A57
power down sequence.

Prior to this patch, the errata workarounds were applied for any version
of the CPU in the release build and in the debug build an assert
failure resulted when the revision did not match. This patch applies
errata workarounds in the Cortex-A57 reset handler only if the 'variant'
and 'revision' fields read from the MIDR_EL1 match. In the debug build,
a warning message is printed for each errata workaround which is not
applied.

The patch modifies the register usage in 'reset_handler` so
as to adhere to ARM procedure calling standards.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#242

This patch adds level specific cache maintenance functions
to cache_helpers.S. The new functions 'dcsw_op_levelx',
where '1 <= x <= 3', allow to perform cache maintenance by
set/way for that particular level of cache.  With this patch,
functions to support cache maintenance upto level 3 have
been implemented since it is the highest cache level for
most ARM SoCs.

These functions are now utilized in CPU specific power down
sequences to implement them as mandated by processor specific
technical reference manual.

This patch adds workarounds for selected errata which affect the Cortex-A57 r0p0
part. Each workaround has a build time flag which should be used by the platform
port to enable or disable the corresponding workaround. The workarounds are
disabled by default. An assertion is raised if the platform enables a workaround
which does not match the CPU revision at runtime.

This patch adds handlers for dumping Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A53 specific register
state to the CPU specific operations framework. The contents of CPUECTLR_EL1 are
dumped currently.

This patch adds CPU core and cluster power down sequences to the CPU specific
operations framework introduced in a earlier patch. Cortex-A53, Cortex-A57 and
generic AEM sequences have been added. The latter is suitable for the
Foundation and Base AEM FVPs. A pointer to each CPU's operations structure is
saved in the per-cpu data so that it can be easily accessed during power down
seqeunces.

An optional platform API has been introduced to allow a platform to disable the
Accelerator Coherency Port (ACP) during a cluster power down sequence. The weak
definition of this function (plat_disable_acp()) does not take any action. It
should be overriden with a strong definition if the ACP is present on a
platform.

This patch adds an optional platform API (plat_reset_handler) which allows the
platform to perform any actions immediately after a cold or warm reset
e.g. implement errata workarounds. The function is called with MMU and caches
turned off. This API is weakly defined and does nothing by default but can be
overriden by a platform with a strong definition.

Change-Id: Ib0acdccbd24bc756528a8bd647df21e8d59707ff

This patch introduces a framework which will allow CPUs to perform
implementation defined actions after a CPU reset, during a CPU or cluster power
down, and when a crash occurs. CPU specific reset handlers have been implemented
in this patch. Other handlers will be implemented in subsequent patches.

Also moved cpu_helpers.S to the new directory lib/cpus/aarch64/.
