This patch adds console drivers including the pl011 driver
for the AArch32 mode.

Change-Id: Ifd22520d370fca3e73dbbf6f2d97d6aee65b67dd

This patch moves the various assembly console drivers
into `aarch64` architecture specific folder. Stub files,
which include files from new location, are retained at the
original location for platform compatibility reasons.

The PL011 TRM (ARM DDI 0183G) specifies that the UART must be
disabled before any of the control registers are programmed. The
PL011 driver included in TF does not disable the UART, so the
initialization in BL2 and BL31 is violating this requirement
(and potentially in BL1 if the UART is enabled after reset).

This patch modifies the initialization function in the PL011
console driver to disable the UART before programming the
control registers.

Register clobber list and documentation updated.

The 'ret' was missing in console_uninit() implementation, so the
program doesn't return from console_uninit(). Instead, it keeps
executing the following instructions which is not expected.

Allowing console base address to be set to NULL conveniently
allows console driver to ignore further invocations to console_putc()
and console_getc(). This patch adds `console_uninit()` API to the
console driver which sets console base address as NULL. The BL images can
invoke this API to finish the use of console and ignore any further
invocations to print to the console.

This patch changes the type of the base address parameter in the
ARM device driver APIs to uintptr_t (GIC, CCI, TZC400, PL011). The
uintptr_t type allows coverage of the whole memory space and to
perform arithmetic operations on the addresses. ARM platform code
has also been updated to use uintptr_t as GIC base address in the
configuration.

Separate out the common console functionality in
`drivers/arm/pl011/pl011_console.S` into a new source file
`drivers/console/console.S`. The former includes the latter to
provide backwards compatibility for platform make files.

Also add a skeleton console implementation for platforms that do not
want to use PL011.

In order for the symbol table in the ELF file to contain the size of
functions written in assembly, it is necessary to report it to the
assembler using the .size directive.

To fulfil the above requirements, this patch introduces an 'endfunc'
macro which contains the .endfunc and .size directives. It also adds
a .func directive to the 'func' assembler macro.

The .func/.endfunc have been used so the assembler can fail if
endfunc is omitted.

This patch adds baud rate and UART clock frequency as parameters
to the pl011 driver api console_init(). This allows each platform
to specify UART clock and baud rate according to their specific
hardware implementation.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#215

Change-Id: Id13eef70a1c530e709b34dd1e6eb84db0797ced2

This patch replaces the pl011 console family of functions
with their equivalents defined in assembly. The baud rate is
defined by the PL011_BAUDRATE macro and IBRD and FBRD values
for pl011 are computed statically. This patch will enable
us to invoke the console functions without the C Runtime Stack.
