Salman Nabi c864af9891 refactor(arm): console runtime switch on bl31 exit
Any BL31 setup and Runtime initialization within BL31 is still part of
the BOOT process. As such, the console flush and switch must be the
last calls before BL31 exit. Flush the console print buffer before
switching to runtime. This is so that there is no lingering chars in
the print buffer when we move to the runtime console.

This patch adds console flush before switching to runtime in
bl31_plat_runtime_setup() function (before BL31 exits). The plan is to
move flush and switch calls to bl31_main before BL31 exits, until then
console_flush() in bl31_main.c has been left as is.

This patch affects the Arm platform only.

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.
