Olivier Deprez 0fe7b9f2bc feat: pass SMCCCv1.3 SVE hint bit to dispatchers
SMCCCv1.3 introduces the SVE hint bit added to the SMC FID (bit 16)
denoting that the world issuing an SMC doesn't expect the callee to
preserve the SVE state (FFR, predicates, Zn vector bits greater than
127). Update the generic SMC handler to copy the SVE hint bit state
to SMC flags and mask out the bit by default for the services called
by the standard dispatcher. It is permitted by the SMCCC standard to
ignore the bit as long as the SVE state is preserved. In any case a
callee must preserve the NEON state (FPCR/FPSR, Vn 128b vectors)
whichever the SVE hint bit state.

Trusted Firmware-A
==================

Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A) is a reference implementation of secure world software
for `Arm A-Profile architectures`_ (Armv8-A and Armv7-A), including an Exception
Level 3 (EL3) `Secure Monitor`_. It provides a suitable starting point for
productization of secure world boot and runtime firmware, in either the AArch32
or AArch64 execution states.

TF-A implements Arm interface standards, including:

-  `Power State Coordination Interface (PSCI)`_
-  `Trusted Board Boot Requirements CLIENT (TBBR-CLIENT)`_
-  `SMC Calling Convention`_
-  `System Control and Management Interface (SCMI)`_
-  `Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)`_

The code is designed to be portable and reusable across hardware platforms and
software models that are based on the Armv8-A and Armv7-A architectures.

In collaboration with interested parties, we will continue to enhance TF-A
with reference implementations of Arm standards to benefit developers working
with Armv7-A and Armv8-A TrustZone technology.

Users are encouraged to do their own security validation, including penetration
testing, on any secure world code derived from TF-A.
