Rework the crash reporting in BL3-1 to use less stack
...
This patch reworks the crash reporting mechanism to further
optimise the stack and code size. The reporting makes use
of assembly console functions to avoid calling C Runtime
to report the CPU state. The crash buffer requirement is
reduced to 64 bytes with this implementation. The crash
buffer is now part of per-cpu data which makes retrieving
the crash buffer trivial.
Also now panic() will use crash reporting if
invoked from BL3-1.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#199

Remove coherent stack usage from the warm boot path
...
This patch uses stacks allocated in normal memory to enable the MMU early in the
warm boot path thus removing the dependency on stacks allocated in coherent
memory. Necessary cache and stack maintenance is performed when a cpu is being
powered down and up. This avoids any coherency issues that can arise from
reading speculatively fetched stale stack memory from another CPUs cache. These
changes affect the warm boot path in both BL3-1 and BL3-2.
The EL3 system registers responsible for preserving the MMU state are not saved
and restored any longer. Static values are used to program these system
registers when a cpu is powered on or resumed from suspend.

Pass 'cookie' parameter to interrupt handler in BL3-1

The interrupt handling routine in BL3-1 expects a cookie as its last
parameter which was not being passed when invoking the interrupt
handler in BL3-1. This patch fixes that by passing a dummy cookie
parameter in the x3 register.

Split platform.h into separate headers
...
Previously, platform.h contained many declarations and definitions
used for different purposes. This file has been split so that:
* Platform definitions used by common code that must be defined
by the platform are now in platform_def.h. The exact include
path is exported through $PLAT_INCLUDES in the platform makefile.
* Platform definitions specific to the FVP platform are now in
/plat/fvp/fvp_def.h.
* Platform API declarations specific to the FVP platform are now
in /plat/fvp/fvp_private.h.
* The remaining platform API declarations that must be ported by
each platform are still in platform.h but this file has been
moved to /include/plat/common since this can be shared by all
platforms.

Introduce interrupt handling framework in BL3-1
...
This patch adds a common handler for FIQ and IRQ exceptions in the
BL3-1 runtime exception vector table. This function determines the
interrupt type and calls its handler. A crash is reported if an
inconsistency in the interrupt management framework is detected. In
the event of a spurious interrupt, execution resumes from the
instruction where the interrupt was generated.
This patch also removes 'cm_macros.S' as its contents have been moved
to 'runtime_exceptions.S'

Rework BL3-1 unhandled exception handling and reporting
...
This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.
This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.
panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.
The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

Preserve x19-x29 across world switch for exception handling
...
Previously exception handlers in BL3-1, X19-X29 were not saved
and restored on every SMC/trap into EL3. Instead these registers
were 'saved as needed' as a side effect of the A64 ABI used by the C
compiler.
That approach failed when world switching but was not visible
with the TSP/TSPD code because the TSP is 64-bit, did not
clobber these registers when running and did not support pre-emption
by normal world interrupts. These scenarios showed
that the values in these registers can be passed through a world
switch, which broke the normal and trusted world assumptions
about these registers being preserved.
The Ideal solution saves and restores these registers when a
world switch occurs - but that type of implementation is more complex.
So this patch always saves and restores these registers on entry and
exit of EL3.

Reduce deep nesting of header files

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.

Allocate single stacks for BL1 and BL2
...
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.

Add support for handling runtime service requests
...
This patch uses the reworked exception handling support to handle
runtime service requests through SMCs following the SMC calling
convention. This is a giant commit since all the changes are
inter-related. It does the following:
1. Replace the old exception handling mechanism with the new one
2. Enforce that SP_EL0 is used C runtime stacks.
3. Ensures that the cold and warm boot paths use the 'cpu_context'
structure to program an ERET into the next lower EL.
4. Ensures that SP_EL3 always points to the next 'cpu_context'
structure prior to an ERET into the next lower EL
5. Introduces a PSCI SMC handler which completes the use of PSCI as a
runtime service

Setup VBAR_EL3 incrementally
...
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.

rework general purpose registers save and restore
...
The runtime exception handling assembler code used magic numbers for
saving and restoring the general purpose register context on stack
memory. The memory is interpreted as a 'gp_regs' structure and the
magic numbers are offsets to members of this structure. This patch
replaces the magic number offsets with constants. It also adds compile
time assertions to prevent an incorrect assembler view of this
structure.
