Justin Chadwell 11a96e0ea0 Remove -Wpadded warning
-Wpadded warns whenever the C compiler automatically includes any
padding in a structure. Because TF-A has a large number of structures,
this occurs fairly frequently and is incredibly verbose, and as such is
unlikely to ever be fixed.

The utility of this warning is also extremely limited - knowing that a
structure includes padding does not point to the existence of an error,
and is probably quite unlikely to indicate actually buggy behaviour.
Therefore, it's probably best to keep this warning off at all times.

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.
