Manish Pandey 43d1d951dd feat(cpufeat): add new feature state for asymmetric features
Introduce a new feature state CHECK_ASYMMETRIC to cater for the features
which are asymmetric across cores. This state is useful for platforms
which has architectural asymmetric cores (A feature is only present in
one type of core e.g. big).
This state is similar to FEAT_STATE_CHECK (dynamic detection) except
that feature state is also checked on each core during warmboot path and
override the context (just for asymmetric features) which was setup by
core executing CPU_ON call.

Only Non-secure context will be re-checked as secure and realm context
is created on same core.

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.
