Introduce interrupt handling framework in BL3-1

This patch adds a common handler for FIQ and IRQ exceptions in the
BL3-1 runtime exception vector table. This function determines the
interrupt type and calls its handler. A crash is reported if an
inconsistency in the interrupt management framework is detected. In
the event of a spurious interrupt, execution resumes from the
instruction where the interrupt was generated.

This patch also removes 'cm_macros.S' as its contents have been moved
to 'runtime_exceptions.S'

Add context library API to change a bit in SCR_EL3

This patch adds an API to write to any bit in the SCR_EL3 member of
the 'cpu_context' structure of the current CPU for a specified

introduce interrupt management in EL3 to specify the interrupt routing
model when execution is not in EL3.

It also renames the cm_set_el3_elr() function to cm_set_elr_el3()
which is more in line with the system register name being targeted by
the API.

Rework 'state' field usage in per-cpu TSP context

This patch lays the foundation for using the per-cpu 'state' field in
the 'tsp_context' structure for other flags apart from the power state
of the TSP.

It allocates 2 bits for the power state, introduces the necessary
macros to manipulate the power state in the 'state' field and
accordingly reworks all use of the TSP_STATE_* states.

It also allocates a flag bit to determine if the TSP is handling a
standard SMC. If this flag is set then the TSP was interrupted due to
non-secure or EL3 interupt depending upon the chosen routing
model. Macros to get, set and clear this flag have been added as
well. This flag will be used by subsequent patches.

Rework BL3-1 unhandled exception handling and reporting

This patch implements the register reporting when unhandled exceptions are
taken in BL3-1. Unhandled exceptions will result in a dump of registers
to the console, before halting execution by that CPU. The Crash Stack,
previously called the Exception Stack, is used for this activity.
This stack is used to preserve the CPU context and runtime stack
contents for debugging and analysis.

This also introduces the per_cpu_ptr_cache, referenced by tpidr_el3,
to provide easy access to some of BL3-1 per-cpu data structures.
Initially, this is used to provide a pointer to the Crash stack.

panic() now prints the the error file and line number in Debug mode
and prints the PC value in release mode.

The Exception Stack is renamed to Crash Stack with this patch.
The original intention of exception stack is no longer valid
since we intend to support several valid exceptions like IRQ
and FIQ in the trusted firmware context. This stack is now
utilized for dumping and reporting the system state when a
crash happens and hence the rename.

Fix broken standby state implementation in PSCI

This patch fixes the broken support for entry into standby states
introduced under commit-id 'd118f9f864' (tf-issues#94). Upon exit from
the platform defined standby state instead of returning to the caller
of the SMC, execution would get stuck in the wfi instruction meant for
entering a power down state. This patch ensures that exit from a
standby state and entry into a power down state do not interfere with
each other.

Instead of having a single version of the MMU setup functions for all

Preserve x19-x29 across world switch for exception handling

Previously exception handlers in BL3-1, X19-X29 were not saved
and restored on every SMC/trap into EL3. Instead these registers
were 'saved as needed' as a side effect of the A64 ABI used by the C
compiler.

That approach failed when world switching but was not visible
with the TSP/TSPD code because the TSP is 64-bit, did not
clobber these registers when running and did not support pre-emption
by normal world interrupts. These scenarios showed
that the values in these registers can be passed through a world
switch, which broke the normal and trusted world assumptions
about these registers being preserved.

The Ideal solution saves and restores these registers when a
world switch occurs - but that type of implementation is more complex.
So this patch always saves and restores these registers on entry and
exit of EL3.

Correct usage of data and instruction barriers

The current code does not always use data and instruction
barriers as required by the architecture and frequently uses
barriers excessively due to their inclusion in all of the
write_*() helper functions.

Barriers should be used explicitly in assembler or C code
when modifying processor state that requires the barriers in
order to enable review of correctness of the code.

This patch removes the barriers from the helper functions and
introduces them as necessary elsewhere in the code.

PORTING NOTE: check any port of Trusted Firmware for use of
system register helper functions for reliance on the previous
barrier behaviour and add explicit barriers as necessary.

Doing this moves the variable from the .data to the .bss

unnecessary, replacing instances with uintptr_t.

Preserve PSCI cpu_suspend 'power_state' parameter.

This patch saves the 'power_state' parameter prior to suspending
a cpu and invalidates it upon its resumption. The 'affinity level'
and 'state id' fields of this parameter can be read using a set of
public and private apis. Validation of power state parameter is
introduced which checks for SBZ bits are zero.
This change also takes care of flushing the parameter from the cache
to main memory. This ensures that it is available after cpu reset
when the caches and mmu are turned off. The earlier support for
saving only the 'affinity level' field of the 'power_state' parameter
has also been reworked.
