refactor(cpufeat): add macro to simplify is_feat_xx_present
In this patch, we are trying to introduce the wrapper macro
CREATE_FEATURE_PRESENT to get the following capability and
align it for all the features:
-> is_feat_xx_present(): Does Hardware implement the feature.
-> uniformity in naming the function across multiple features.
-> improved readability
The is_feat_xx_present() is implemented to check if the hardware
implements the feature and does not take into account the
ENABLE_FEAT_XXX flag enabled/disabled in software.
- CREATE_FEATURE_PRESENT(name, idreg, shift, mask, idval)
The wrapper macro reduces the function to a single line and
creates the is_feat_xx_present function that checks the
id register based on the shift and mask values and compares
this against a determined idvalue.

fix(gpt): declare gpt_tlbi_by_pa_ll()
The patch 8754cc5 accidentally removes the declaration of
gpt_tlbi_by_pa_ll() and hence breaks RME builds. This patch
fixes the same.

feat(el3-runtime): introduce UNDEF injection to lower EL
For a feature to be used at lower ELs, EL3 generally needs to disable
the trap so that lower ELs can access the system registers associated
with the feature. Lower ELs generally check ID registers to dynamically
detect if a feature is present (in HW) or not while EL3 Firmware relies
statically on feature build macros to enable a feature.
If a lower EL accesses a system register for a feature that EL3 FW is
unaware of, EL3 traps the access and panics. This happens mostly with
EL2 but sometimes VMs can also cause EL3 panic.
To provide platforms with capability to mitigate this problem, UNDEF
injection support has been introduced which injects a synchronous
exception into the lower EL which is supposed to handle the
synchronous exception.
The current support is only provided for aarch64.
The implementation does the following on encountering sys reg trap
- Get the target EL, which can be either EL2 or EL1
- Update ELR_ELx with ELR_EL3, so that after UNDEF handling in lower EL
control returns to original location.
- ESR_ELx with EC_UNKNOWN
- Update ELR_EL3 with vector address of sync exception handler with
following possible causes
- Current EL with SP0
- Current EL with SPx
- Lower EL using AArch64
- Re-create SPSR_EL3 which will be used to generate PSTATE at ERET
