Oliver Swede 5cfe699f2b plat/arm/board/arm_fpga: Use preloaded BL33 alternative boot flow
This makes use of the PRELOADED_BL33_BASE flag to indicate to BL31 that
the BL33 payload (kernel) has already been loaded and resides in memory;
BL31 will then jump to the non-secure address.

For this port the BL33 payload is the Linux kernel, and in accordance
with the pre-kernel setup requirements (as specified in the `Booting
AArch64 Linux' documentation:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/arm64/booting.txt),
this change also sets up the primary CPU's registers x0-x3 so they are
the expected values, which includes the address of the DTB at x0.

An external linker script is currently required to combine BL31, the
BL33 payload, and any other software images to create an ELF file that
can be uploaded to the FPGA board along with the bit file. It therefore
has dependencies on the value of PRELOADED_BL33_BASE (kernel base) and
the DTB base (plus any other relevant base addresses used to
distinguish the different ELF sections), both of which are set in this
patch.

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.
