refactor: convert arm platforms to use the generic GIC driverThis reduces the code the platforms have to carry and makes their buildrules a bit simpler.The main benefit is that plat_my_core_pos() no longer needs to be calledwithin the driver, helping with performance a bit.Change-Id: I0b0d1d36d20d67c41c8c9dc14ade11bda6d4a6afSigned-off-by: Boyan Karatotev <boyan.karatotev@arm.com>

refactor(arm): simplify early platform setup functionsRefactor `arm_sp_min_early_platform_setup` to accept generic`u_register_r` values to support receiving firmware handoff bootarguments in common code. This has the added benefit of simplifying theinterface into common early platform setup.Change-Id: Idfc3d41f94f2bf3a3a0c7ca39f6b9b0013836e3aSigned-off-by: Harrison Mutai <harrison.mutai@arm.com>

plat/arm: Introduce FVP Versatile Express platform.This patch adds support for Versatile express FVP (Fast models).Versatile express is a family of platforms that are based on ARM v7.Currently this port has only been tested on Cortex A7, although itshould work with other ARM V7 cores that support LPAE, generic timers,VFP and hardware divide. Future patches will support othercores like Cortex A5 that dont support features like LPAEand hardware divide. This platform is tested on and only expected towork on single core models.Change-Id: I10893af65b8bb64da7b3bd851cab8231718e61ddSigned-off-by: Usama Arif <usama.arif@arm.com>
