linker_script: move more common code to bl_common.ld.h

These are mostly used to collect data from special structure,
and repeated in many linker scripts.

To differentiate the alignment size between aarch32/aarch64, I added
a new macro STRUCT_ALIGN.

While I moved the PMF_SVC_DESCS, I dropped #if ENABLE_PMF conditional.
As you can see in include/lib/pmf/pmf_helpers.h, PMF_REGISTER_SERVICE*
are no-op when ENABLE_PMF=0. So, pmf_svc_descs and pmf_timestamp_array
data are not populated.

sp_min.ld.S is used for aarch32.

ALIGN(4) is used for alignment of the other structures. I do not think
struct fconf_populator is a special case. Let's use ALIGN(4) here too.

Perhaps, this is just a copy-paste mistake of commit 26d1e0c33098
("fconf: necessary modifications to support fconf in BL31 & SP_MIN").

fconf: necessary modifications to support fconf in BL31 & SP_MIN

Necessary infrastructure added to integrate fconf framework in BL31 & SP_MIN.
Created few populator() functions which parse HW_CONFIG device tree
and registered them with fconf framework. Many of the changes are
only applicable for fvp platform.

This patch:
1. Adds necessary symbols and sections in BL31, SP_MIN linker script
2. Adds necessary memory map entry for translation in BL31, SP_MIN
3. Creates an abstraction layer for hardware configuration based on
fconf framework
4. Adds necessary changes to build flow (makefiles)
5. Minimal callback to read hw_config dtb for capturing properties
related to GIC(interrupt-controller node)
6. updates the fconf documentation

Factor xlat_table sections in linker scripts out into a header file

TF-A has so many linker scripts, at least one linker script for each BL
image, and some platforms have their own ones. They duplicate quite
similar code (and comments).

When we add some changes to linker scripts, we end up with touching
so many files. This is not nice in the maintainability perspective.

When you look at Linux kernel, the common code is macrofied in
include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h, which is included from each arch
linker script, arch/*/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S

TF-A can follow this approach. Let's factor out the common code into
include/common/bl_common.ld.h

As a start point, this commit factors out the xlat_table section.

pmf: Make the runtime instrumentation work on AArch32

Ported the pmf asm macros and the asm code in the bl31 entrypoint
necessary for the instrumentation to AArch32.

Since smc dispatch is handled by the bl32 payload on AArch32, we
provide this service only if AARCH32_SP=sp_min is set.

AArch32: Disable Secure Cycle Counter

This patch changes implementation for disabling Secure Cycle
Counter. For ARMv8.5 the counter gets disabled by setting
SDCR.SCCD bit on CPU cold/warm boot. For the earlier
architectures PMCR register is saved/restored on secure
world entry/exit from/to Non-secure state, and cycle counting
gets disabled by setting PMCR.DP bit.
In 'include\aarch32\arch.h' header file new
ARMv8.5-PMU related definitions were added.

This patch introduces explicit linker variables to mark the start and
end of the per-cpu bakery lock section to help bakery_lock_normal.c
calculate the size of the section. This patch removes the previously
used '__PERCPU_BAKERY_LOCK_SIZE__' linker variable to make the code
uniform across GNU linker and ARM linker.
