Patch fc7dca72ba656e5f147487b20f9f0fb6eb39e116 changed the owning
security states of the TRBE and SPE buffers to NS. The thinking was that
this would assist SMCCC feature availability to more easily determine
if the feature is enabled or disabled. However, that only changed bit 0
while the SMCCC feature only looks at bit 1 so this change is redundant.
It was also meant to tighten security but that was done by
73d98e3759 instead.
Annoyingly, FEAT_TRBE has TRBIDR_EL1 which reports that programming is
allowed when the current security state owns the buffer even when the
MDCR_EL3 setting disallows this in practice.
So revert the functional aspect of the patch as it causes linux panics
with ERRATA_A520_2938996. Keep the defines as they are used elsewhere.

SPE and TRBE don't have an outright EL3 disable, there are only
constraints on what's allowed. Since we only enable them for NS at the
moment, we want NS to own the buffers even when the feature should be
"disabled" for a world. This means that when we're running in NS
everything is as normal but when running in S/RL then tracing is
prohibited (since the buffers are owned by NS). This allows us to fiddle
with context a bit more without having to context switch registers.

Just like for SPE, we need to synchronize TRBE samples before we change
the context to ensure everything goes where it was intended to. If that
is not done, the in-flight entries might use any piece of now incorrect
context as there are no implicit ordering requirements.
Prior to root context, the buffer drain hooks would have done that. But
now that must happen much earlier. So add a tsb to prepare_el3_entry as
well.
Annoyingly, the barrier can be reordered relative to other instructions
by default (rule RCKVWP). So add an isb after the psb/tsb to assure that
they are ordered, at least as far as context is concerned.
Then, drop the buffer draining hooks. Everything they need to do is
already done by now. There's a notable difference in that there are no
dsb-s now. Since EL3 does not access the buffers or the feature
specific context, we don't need to wait for them to finish.
Finally, drop a stray isb in the context saving macro. It is now
absorbed into root context, but was missed.

This patch adds trbe_disable() which disables Trace buffer access
from lower ELs in all security state. This function makes Secure
state the owner of Trace buffer and access from EL2/EL1 generate
trap exceptions to EL3.

Currently MDCR_EL3 register value is same for all the
worlds(Non-secure, Secure, Realm and Root).
With this approach, features enable/disable settings
remain same across all the worlds. This is not ideal as
there must be flexibility in controlling feature as per
the requirements for individual world.
The patch addresses this by providing MDCR_EL3 a per world
value. Features with identical values for all the worlds are
grouped under ``manage_extensions_common`` API.

These bits (MDCR_EL3.{NSTB, NSTBE, TTRF, TPM}, CPTR_EL3.TTA) only affect
EL2 (and lower) execution. Each feat_init_el3() is called long before
any lower EL has had a chance to execute, so setting the bits at reset
is redundant. Removing them from reset code also improves readability of
the immutable EL3 state.
Preserve the original intention for the TTA bit of "enabled for NS and
disabled everywhere else" (inferred from commit messages d4582d3088 and
2031d6166a and the comment). This is because CPTR_EL3 will be contexted
and so everyone will eventually get whatever NS has anyway.

Combining the EL2 and EL3 enablement code necessitates that it must be
called at el3_exit, which is the only place with enough context to make
the decision of what needs to be set.
Decouple them to allow them to be called from elsewhere.

At the moment we only support FEAT_TRBE to be either unconditionally
compiled in, or to be not supported at all.
Add support for runtime detection (ENABLE_TRBE_FOR_NS=2), by splitting
is_feat_trbe_present() into an ID register reading function and a second
function to report the support status. That function considers both
build time settings and runtime information (if needed), and is used
before we access TRBE related registers.
The FVP platform decided to compile in support unconditionally (=1),
even though FEAT_TRBE is an ARMv9 feature, so is not available with the
FVP model's default command line.
Change that to the now supported dynamic option (=2), so the right
decision can be made by the code at runtime.

This change adds "FEAT_TRBE" to be part of feature detection mechanism.
Previously feature enablement flags were of boolean type, containing
either 0 or 1. With the introduction of feature detection procedure
we now support three states for feature enablement build flags(0 to 2).
Accordingly, "ENABLE_TRBE_FOR_NS" flag is now modified from boolean
to numeric type to align with the feature detection.

Introduced a build flag 'ENABLE_TRBE_FOR_NS' to enable trace buffer
control registers access in NS-EL2, or NS-EL1 (when NS-EL2 is
implemented but unused).
