Remove unused 'PL011_BASE' macro

'PL011_BASE' macro is no longer used because the right UART base
address is now directly given to the 'console_init()' function.
This patch removes it.

The data cache clean and invalidate operations dcsw_op_all()
and dcsw_op_loius() were implemented to invoke a DSB and ISB
barrier for every set/way operation. This adds a substantial
performance penalty to an already expensive operation.

These functions have been reworked to provide an optimised
implementation derived from the code in section D3.4 of the
ARMv8 ARM. The helper macro setup_dcsw_op_args has been moved
and reworked alongside the implementation.

There are a small number of non-EL specific helper functions
which are no longer used, and also some unusable helper
functions for non-existant registers.

This change removes all of these functions.

Instead of using the system register helper functions to read
or write system registers, assembler coded functions should
use MRS/MSR instructions. This results in faster and more
compact code.

This change replaces all usage of the helper functions with
direct register accesses.

disable_mmu() cannot work as a C function as there is no control
over data accesses generated by the compiler between disabling and
cleaning the data cache. This results in reading stale data from
main memory.

As assembler version is provided for EL3, and a variant that also
disables the instruction cache which is now used by the BL1
exception handling function.

The current code does not always use data and instruction
barriers as required by the architecture and frequently uses
barriers excessively due to their inclusion in all of the
write_*() helper functions.

Barriers should be used explicitly in assembler or C code
when modifying processor state that requires the barriers in
order to enable review of correctness of the code.

This patch removes the barriers from the helper functions and
introduces them as necessary elsewhere in the code.

PORTING NOTE: check any port of Trusted Firmware for use of
system register helper functions for reliance on the previous
barrier behaviour and add explicit barriers as necessary.

Remove variables from .data section

Update code base to remove variables from the .data section,
mainly by using const static data where possible and adding
the const specifier as required. Most changes are to the IO
subsystem, including the framework APIs. The FVP power
management code is also affected.

Delay initialization of the global static variable,
next_image_type in bl31_main.c, until it is realy needed.
Doing this moves the variable from the .data to the .bss
section.

Also review the IO interface for inconsistencies, using
uintptr_t where possible instead of void *. Remove the
io_handle and io_dev_handle typedefs, which were
unnecessary, replacing instances with uintptr_t.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#107.

dh/major refactoring

Reduce the number of header files included from other header
files as much as possible without splitting the files. Use forward
declarations where possible. This allows removal of some unnecessary
"#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__" statements.

Also, review the .c and .S files for which header files really need
including and reorder the #include statements alphabetically.

Add tag names to all unnamed structs in header files. This
allows forward declaration of structs, which is necessary to
reduce header file nesting (to be implemented in a subsequent
commit).

Also change the typedef names across the codebase to use the _t
suffix to be more conformant with the Linux coding style. The
coding style actually prefers us not to use typedefs at all but
this is considered a step too far for Trusted Firmware.

Also change the IO framework structs defintions to use typedef'd
structs to be consistent with the rest of the codebase.

Preserve PSCI cpu_suspend 'power_state' parameter.

This patch saves the 'power_state' parameter prior to suspending
a cpu and invalidates it upon its resumption. The 'affinity level'
and 'state id' fields of this parameter can be read using a set of
public and private apis. Validation of power state parameter is
introduced which checks for SBZ bits are zero.
This change also takes care of flushing the parameter from the cache
to main memory. This ensures that it is available after cpu reset
when the caches and mmu are turned off. The earlier support for
saving only the 'affinity level' field of the 'power_state' parameter
has also been reworked.

Hl/secure memory

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#64

Change-Id: I4e56c25f9dc7f486fbf6fa2f7d8253874119b989

- Use the TrustZone controller on Base FVP to program DRAM access
  permissions. By default no access to DRAM is allowed if
  'secure memory' is enabled on the Base FVP.
- The Foundation FVP does not have a TrustZone controller but instead
  has fixed access permissions.
- Update FDTs for Linux to use timers at the correct security level.
- Starting the FVPs with 'secure memory' disabled is also supported.

Limitations:
Virtio currently uses a reserved NSAID. This will be corrected in
future FVP releases.

Allocate single stacks for BL1 and BL2 (v2)

The BL images share common stack management code which provides
one coherent and one cacheable stack for every CPU. BL1 and BL2
just execute on the primary CPU during boot and do not require
the additional CPU stacks. This patch provides separate stack
support code for UP and MP images, substantially reducing the
RAM usage for BL1 and BL2 for the FVP platform.

This patch also provides macros for declaring stacks and
calculating stack base addresses to improve consistency where
this has to be done in the firmware.

The stack allocation source files are now included via
platform.mk rather than the common BLx makefiles. This allows
each platform to select the appropriate MP/UP stack support
for each BL image.

Each platform makefile must be updated when including this
commit.
