[PATCH v8 0/6] FF-A VM to VM support

[Bertrand Marquis <bertrand.marquis@arm.com>]

This patch serie adds support to use FF-A between VM for communications
using indirect messages.

It adds a Kconfig parameter to enable this feature and marks it as
experimental as for now there is no system to restrict communication
rights between VM using this system.

It also adds support to use VM to VM communications using FF-A even if
there is no firmware support for FF-A. As this feature enables FF-A
support in all cases, we also introduce a new command line parameter to
allow the user to force which tee is to be used between FF-A and Optee
to have a solution to enable optee support if FF-A VM to VM is enabled.

Changes since v7:
- typo fixes
- use LIST_HEAD and DEFINE_RWLOCK
- add Jens R-b and Julien A-b

Changes since v6:
- use a rwlock to protect access to the chain list of context
- rebase on top of staging
- add some R-b/A-b from Jens and Julien

Changes since v5:
- coding style fixes
- rework version negociation to use the context lock
- split probe into fw and vm to vm probe to make code clearer
- add some R-b from Jens

Changes since v4:
- fix typos and optimize command line parameter
- split VM to VM support in 2 patches to ease review
- organize ffa contexts in a chain list to be able to build the partinfo
  result without taking the global domain lock
- introduce a maximum number of SPs to prevent holding the CPU for too
  long during partinfo call
- use an atomic to store the number of FF-A VMs
- prevent potential overflows in indirect message handling
- fix copy bug in indirect message introduced in v4

Changes since v3:
- reintroduce firmare v1.0 support in partinfo
- fix a possible TOC/TOU issue in indirect message handling
- typos and small fixes

Changes since v2:
- Rework partition_info_get implementation
- Taint Xen and display a message when VM to VM is enabled
- Various fixes explained in each patch

Changes since v1 (rfc):
- add a tee command line parameter
- use IS_ENABLED instead of ifdef when possible
- rebase on latest staging
