The SCP firmware on the ARM FPGA initialises the UART already. This allows
us to treat the PL011 as an SBSA Generic UART, which does not require
any further setup.

This in particular removes the need for any baudrate and base clock related
settings to be hard coded into the BL31 image.

Now that we have an implementation for getting the node offset of the
stdout-path property in the generic fdt_wrappers code, use that to
replace the current ST platform specific implementation.

The stdout-path property in the /chosen node of a DTB points to a device
node, which is used for boot console output.
On most (if not all) ARM based platforms this is the debug UART.
The ST platform code contains a function to parse this property and
chase down eventual aliases to learn the node offset of this UART node.

Introduce a slightly more generalised version of this ST platform function
in the generic fdt_wrappers code. This will be useful for other platforms
as well.

The STM32 platform port parse DT nodes to find base address to
peripherals. It does this by using its own implementation, even though
this functionality is generic and actually widely useful outside of the
STM32 code.

Re-implement fdt_get_reg_props_by_name() on top of the newly introduced
fdt_get_reg_props_by_index() function, and move it to fdt_wrapper.c.
This is removes the assumption that #address-cells and #size-cells are
always one.

* changes:
  arm: fconf: Fix GICv3 dynamic configuration
  plat/stm32: Implement fdt_read_uint32_default() as a wrapper
  fdt/wrappers: Replace fdtw_read_cells() implementation
  plat/stm32: Use generic fdt_read_uint32_array() implementation
  fdt/wrappers: Generalise fdtw_read_array()

At the moment the fconf_populate_gicv3_config() implementation is
somewhat incomplete: First it actually fails to store the retrieved
information (the local addr[] array is going nowhere), but also it makes
quite some assumptions about the device tree passed to it: it needs to
use two address-cells and two size-cells, and also requires all five
register regions to be specified, where actually only the first two
are mandatory according to the binding (and needed by our code).

Fix this by introducing a proper generic function to retrieve "reg"
property information from a DT node:
We retrieve the #address-cells and #size-cells properties from the
parent node, then use those to extract the right values from the "reg"
property. The function takes an index to select one region of a reg
property.

This is loosely based on the STM32 implementation using "reg-names",
which we will subsume in a follow-up patch.

The STM32 platform code uses its own set of FDT helper functions,
although some of them are fairly generic.

Remove the implementation of fdt_read_uint32_default() and implement it
on top of the newly introduced fdt_read_uint32() function, then convert
all users over.

This also fixes two callers, which were slightly abusing the "default"
semantic.

Our fdtw_read_cells() implementation goes to great lengths to
sanity-check every parameter and result, but leaves a big hole open:
The size of the storage the value pointer points at needs to match the
number of cells given. This can't be easily checked at compile time,
since we lose the size information by using a void pointer.
Regardless the current usage of this function is somewhat wrong anyways,
since we use it on single-element, fixed-length properties only, for
which the DT binding specifies the size.
Typically we use those functions dealing with a number of cells in DT
context to deal with *dynamically* sized properties, which depend on
other properties (#size-cells, #clock-cells, ...), to specify the number
of cells needed.

Another problem with the current implementation is the use of
ambiguously sized types (uintptr_t, size_t) together with a certain
expectation about their size. In general there is no relation between
the length of a DT property and the bitness of the code that parses the
DTB: AArch64 code could encounter 32-bit addresses (where the physical
address space is limited to 4GB [1]), while AArch32 code could read
64-bit sized properties (/memory nodes on LPAE systems, [2]).

To make this more clear, fix the potential issues and also align more
with other DT users (Linux and U-Boot), introduce functions to explicitly
read uint32 and uint64 properties. As the other DT consumers, we do this
based on the generic "read array" function.
Convert all users to use either of those two new functions, and make
sure we never use a pointer to anything other than uint32_t or uint64_t
variables directly.

This reveals (and fixes) a bug in plat_spmd_manifest.c, where we write
4 bytes into a uint16_t variable (passed via a void pointer).

Also we change the implementation of the function to better align with
other libfdt users, by using the right types (fdt32_t) and common
variable names (*prop, prop_names).

The device tree parsing code for the STM32 platform is using its own FDT
helper functions, some of them being rather generic.
In particular the existing fdt_read_uint32_array() implementation is now
almost identical to the new generic code in fdt_wrappers.c, so we can
remove the ST specific version and adjust the existing callers.

Compared to the original ST implementation the new version takes a
pointer to the DTB as the first argument, and also swaps the order of
the number of cells and the pointer.

Currently our fdtw_read_array() implementation requires the length of
the property to exactly match the requested size, which makes it less
flexible for parsing generic device trees.
Also the name is slightly misleading, since we treat the cells of the
array as 32 bit unsigned integers, performing the endianess conversion.

To fix those issues and align the code more with other DT users (Linux
kernel or U-Boot), rename the function to "fdt_read_uint32_array", and
relax the length check to only check if the property covers at least the
number of cells we request.
This also changes the variable names to be more in-line with other DT
users, and switches to the proper data types.

This makes this function more useful in later patches.

* changes:
  linker_script: move .data section to bl_common.ld.h
  linker_script: move stacks section to bl_common.ld.h
  bl1: remove '.' from stacks section in linker script

Move the data section to the common header.

I slightly tweaked some scripts as follows:

[1] bl1.ld.S has ALIGN(16). I added DATA_ALIGN macro, which is 1
    by default, but overridden by bl1.ld.S. Currently, ALIGN(16)
    of the .data section is redundant because commit 41286590


    ("Fix boot failures on some builds linked with ld.lld.") padded
    out the previous section to work around the issue of LLD version
    <= 10.0. This will be fixed in the future release of LLVM, so
    I am keeping the proper way to align LMA.

[2] bl1.ld.S and bl2_el3.ld.S define __DATA_RAM_{START,END}__ instead
    of __DATA_{START,END}__. I put them out of the .data section.

[3] SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT() is missing tsp.ld.S, sp_min.ld.S, and
    mediatek/mt6795/bl31.ld.S. This commit adds SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT()
    for all images, so the symbol order in those three will change,
    but I do not think it is a big deal.

Commit 4f59d835 ("Make BL1 RO and RW base addresses configurable")
added '.' on purpose but the commit message does not help to understand
why.

This commit gets rid of it in order to factor out the stacks section
into include/common/bl_common.ld.h

Sandrine pointed me to a useful document [1] to understand why LMAs of
stacks, .bss, and xlat_table section have changed.

Before this patch, they fell into this scenario:
 "If the section has a specific VMA address, then this is used as the
  LMA address as well."

With this commit, the following applies:
 "Otherwise if a memory region can be found that is compatible with the
  current section, and this region contains at least one section, then
  the LMA is set so the difference between the VMA and LMA is the same
  as the difference between the VMA and LMA of the last section in the
  located region."

Anyway, those three sections are not loaded, so the LMA changes will not
be a problem. The size of bl1.bin is still the same.

QEMU still boots successfully with this change.

A good thing is, this fixes the error for the latest LLD. If I use the
mainline LLVM, I see the following error. The alignment check will probably
be included in the LLVM 11 release, so it is better to fix it now.
