This patch uses the context library to save and restore EL3 state on
the 'cpu_context' data structures allocated by PSCI for managing
non-secure state context on each cpu.

Change-Id: I19c1f26578204a7cd9e0a6c582ced0d97ee4cf80

This patch adds support for a cpu context management library. This
library will be used to:

1. Share pointers to secure and non-secure state cpu contexts between
   runtime services e.g. PSCI and Secure Payload Dispatcher services
2. Set SP_EL3 to a context structure which will be used for
   programming an ERET into a lower EL
3. Provide wrapper functions to save and restore EL3 & EL1
   state. These functions will in turn use the helper functions in
   context.S

This patch introduces functions for saving and restoring shared system
registers between secure and non-secure EL1 exception levels, VFP
registers and essential EL3 system register and other state. It also
defines the 'cpu_context' data structure which will used for saving and
restoring execution context for a given security state. These functions
will allow runtime services like PSCI and Secure payload dispatcher to
implement logic for switching between the secure and non-secure states.

The save and restore functions follow AArch64 PCS and only use
caller-saved temporary registers.

This patch ensures that VBAR_EL3 points to the simple stack-less
'early_exceptions' when the C runtime stack is not correctly setup to
use the more complex 'runtime_exceptions'. It is initialised to
'runtime_exceptions' once this is done.

This patch also moves all exception vectors into a '.vectors' section
and modifies linker scripts to place all such sections together. This
will minimize space wastage from alignment restrictions.

The SynchronousExceptionA64 vector has gone beyond the 32-instruction
limit for individual exception vector. This patch splits and relocates
the exception handler so that it fits into the 32-instruction window.

This patch moves the translation tables into their own section. This
saves space that would otherwise have been lost in padding due to page
table alignment constraints. The BL31 and BL32 bases have been
consequently adjusted.

The Firmware Image Package (FIP) driver allows for data to be loaded
from a FIP on platform storage. The FVP supports loading bootloader
images from a FIP located in NOR FLASH.

The implemented FVP policy states that bootloader images will be
loaded from a FIP in NOR FLASH if available and fall back to loading
individual images from semi-hosting.

NOTE:
- BL3-3(e.g. UEFI) is loaded into DRAM and needs to be configured
  to run from the BL33_BASE address. This is currently set to
  DRAM_BASE+128MB for the FVP.

This tool can be used to create a Firmware Image Packages (FIP). These
FIPs store a combined set of firmware images with a Table of Contents
(ToC) that can be loaded by the firmware from platform storage.

- Add uuid.h from FreeBSD.
- Use symbolic links to shared headers otherwise unwanted headers and
  definitions are pulled in.
- A FIP is created as part of the default FVP build.
- A BL3-3 image(e.g. UEFI) must be provided.

The modified implementation uses the IO abstraction rather than
making direct semi-hosting calls.  The semi-hosting driver is now
registered for the FVP platform during initialisation of each boot
stage where it is used.  Additionally, the FVP platform includes a
straightforward implementation of 'plat_get_image_source' which
provides a generic means for the 'load_image' function to determine
how to access the image data.

Change-Id: Ia34457b471dbee990c7b3c79de7aee4ceea51aa6

This is intended primarily for use as a storage abstraction.
It allows operations such as image-loading to be implemented
in a platform-independent fashion.  Each platform registers
a set of IO drivers during initialisation.  The platform must
also provide a function that will return a device and a specifier
that can be used to access specified content.

Clients of the API will primarily use device and entity handles.
The term "entity" is deliberately vague, to allow for different
representations of content accessed using different types of
specifier, but will often be interpreted as a "file" where the
specifier will normally be its path.

This commit builds, but is intended to be paired with a sample
implementation of "load_image" using a semi-hosting driver on FVP.

New phony Makefile targets have been added:

 * checkcodebase
 * checkpatch

The checkcodebase target will run a Linux style compliance check over the
entire codebase, and honours the V=1 Makefile verbose setting and so will
show more information when this is enabled.

If the local directory is a git checkout then the output of git ls-files is
used to decide which files to test for compliance.  If the local directory
is not under git control then a 'best attempt' is made, but in this case it
should be noted that it is possible for additional non-codebase files to be
tested, so care should be taken when parsing the output.

The checkpatch target will compare local changes against the git origin/master
to allow issues with the last set of changes to be identified.  To override
the change comparision location, set the BASE_COMMIT variable to your
desired git branch.

Both targets rely on the Linux source tree script checkpatch.pl to do the
syntax checking, and expects that the CHECKPATCH environment variable points
to the location of this file.

Notes on the usage of these targets have been added to the contributing.md
and docs/user-guide.md text files.

The last CPU in a cluster is responsible for issuing the cluster power
down request to the FVP power controller. If another CPU in this
cluster wakes up before the last CPU enters WFI then the cluster power
down request remains pending. If this request is not cancelled and the
newly woken up CPU enters a simple WFI later, the power controller
powers the cluster down. This leads to unpredictable behaviour.

This patch fixes this issue by ensuring that the first CPU to wake up
in a cluster writes its MPIDR to the power controller's PPONR. This
cancels any pending cluster power down request.

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.

Change-Id: I0900ae49a50b496da137cfec8f158da0397ec56c

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.
