Optimize EL3 register state stored in cpu_context structure
...
This patch further optimizes the EL3 register state stored in
cpu_context. The 2 registers which are removed from cpu_context are:
* cntfrq_el0 is the system timer register which is writable
only in EL3 and it can be programmed during cold/warm boot. Hence
it need not be saved to cpu_context.
* cptr_el3 controls access to Trace, Floating-point, and Advanced
SIMD functionality and it is programmed every time during cold
and warm boot. The current BL3-1 implementation does not need to
modify the access controls during normal execution and hence
they are expected to remain static.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#197

Initialise CPU contexts from entry_point_info
...
Consolidate all BL3-1 CPU context initialization for cold boot, PSCI
and SPDs into two functions:
* The first uses entry_point_info to initialize the relevant
cpu_context for first entry into a lower exception level on a CPU
* The second populates the EL1 and EL2 system registers as needed
from the cpu_context to ensure correct entry into the lower EL
This patch alters the way that BL3-1 determines which exception level
is used when first entering EL1 or EL2 during cold boot - this is now
fully determined by the SPSR value in the entry_point_info for BL3-3,
as set up by the platform code in BL2 (or otherwise provided to BL3-1).
In the situation that EL1 (or svc mode) is selected for a processor
that supports EL2, the context management code will now configure all
essential EL2 register state to ensure correct execution of EL1. This
allows the platform code to run non-secure EL1 payloads directly
without requiring a small EL2 stub or OS loader.

Move CPU context pointers into cpu_data
...
Moving the context pointers for each CPU into the per-cpu data
allows for much more efficient access to the contexts for the
current CPU.

Per-cpu data cache restructuring
...
This patch prepares the per-cpu pointer cache for wider use by:
* renaming the structure to cpu_data and placing in new header
* providing accessors for this CPU, or other CPUs
* splitting the initialization of the TPIDR pointer from the
initialization of the cpu_data content
* moving the crash stack initialization to a crash stack function
* setting the TPIDR pointer very early during boot

Provide cm_get/set_context() for current CPU
...
All callers of cm_get_context() pass the calling CPU MPIDR to the
function. Providing a specialised version for the current
CPU results in a reduction in code size and better readability.
The current function has been renamed to cm_get_context_by_mpidr()
and the existing name is now used for the current-CPU version.
The same treatment has been done to cm_set_context(), although
only both forms are used at present in the PSCI and TSPD code.

Remove extern keyword from function declarations
...
Function declarations implicitly have external linkage so do not
need the extern keyword.

Add context library API to change a bit in SCR_EL3
...
This patch adds an API to write to any bit in the SCR_EL3 member of
the 'cpu_context' structure of the current CPU for a specified
security state. This API will be used in subsequent patches which
introduce interrupt management in EL3 to specify the interrupt routing
model when execution is not in EL3.
It also renames the cm_set_el3_elr() function to cm_set_elr_el3()
which is more in line with the system register name being targeted by
the API.

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.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#79 Improve reporting of unhandled exception

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.
Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#31

Move include and source files to logical locations
...
Move almost all system include files to a logical sub-directory
under ./include. The only remaining system include directories
not under ./include are specific to the platform. Move the
corresponding source files to match the include directory
structure.
Also remove pm.h as it is no longer used.
