Implement static workaround for CVE-2018-3639
For affected CPUs, this approach enables the mitigation during EL3
initialization, following every PE reset. No mechanism is provided to
disable the mitigation at runtime.
This approach permanently mitigates the entire software stack and no
additional mitigation code is required in other software components.
TF-A implements this approach for the following affected CPUs:
* Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72, by setting bit 55 (Disable load pass store) of
`CPUACTLR_EL1` (`S3_1_C15_C2_0`).
* Cortex-A73, by setting bit 3 of `S3_0_C15_C0_0` (not documented in the
Technical Reference Manual (TRM)).
* Cortex-A75, by setting bit 35 (reserved in TRM) of `CPUACTLR_EL1`
(`S3_0_C15_C1_0`).
Additionally, a new SMC interface is implemented to allow software
executing in lower ELs to discover whether the system is mitigated
against CVE-2018-3639.

vulnerabilities System Software on Arm Systems"[0] for more

Fixup `SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURES` semantics
When querying `SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1` through `SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURES`,
return either:
* -1 to indicate the PE on which `SMCCC_ARCH_FEATURES` is called
requires firmware mitigation for CVE-2017-5715 but the mitigation
is not compiled in.
* 0 to indicate that firmware mitigation is required, or
* 1 to indicate that no firmware mitigation is required.
This patch complies with v1.2 of the firmware interfaces
specification (ARM DEN 0070A).

ARMv7: introduce Cortex-A9
As Cortex-A9 needs to manually enable program flow prediction,
do not reset SCTLR[Z] at entry. Platform should enable it only
once MMU is enabled.

CPU: Correct names of implementation-defined aux regs
At present, various CPU register macros that refer to CPUACTLR are named
ACTLR. This patch fixes that.

CPU: Correct names of implementation-defined aux regs
At present, various CPU register macros that refer to CPUACTLR are named
ACTLR. This patch fixes that.
The previous register names are retained, but guarded by the
ERROR_DEPRECATED macro, so as not to break platforms that continue using
the old names.
