fconf: enhancements to firmware configuration framework
...
A populate() function essentially captures the value of a property,
defined by a platform, into a fconf related c structure. Such a
callback is usually platform specific and is associated to a specific
configuration source.
For example, a populate() function which captures the hardware topology
of the platform can only parse HW_CONFIG DTB. Hence each populator
function must be registered with a specific 'config_type' identifier.
It broadly represents a logical grouping of configuration properties
which is usually a device tree source file.
Example:
> TB_FW: properties related to trusted firmware such as IO policies,
base address of other DTBs, mbedtls heap info etc.
> HW_CONFIG: properties related to hardware configuration of the SoC
such as topology, GIC controller, PSCI hooks, CPU ID etc.
This patch modifies FCONF_REGISTER_POPULATOR macro and fconf_populate()
to register and invoke the appropriate callbacks selectively based on
configuration type.
