[PATCH v6 0/5] Add support for the TPM FF-A start method

[Stuart Yoder <stuart.yoder@arm.com>]

Firmware Framework for Arm A-profile (FF-A) is a messaging framework
for Arm-based systems, and in the context of the TPM CRB driver is used
to signal 'start' to a CRB-based TPM service which is hosted in an
FF-A secure partition running in TrustZone.

These patches add support for the CRB FF-A start method defined
in the TCG ACPI specification v1.4 and the FF-A ABI defined
in the Arm TPM Service CRB over FF-A (DEN0138) specification:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0138/latest/

The first patch adds an FF-A driver to handle the FF-A messaging when
communicating with a CRB-based TPM secure partition built on FF-A.
The driver is probed when the TPM secure partition is discovered by
the Linux FF-A infrastructure.

The second patch consolidates the check for idle support in the CRB
driver to one place.

The third patch defines the new ACPI start method enumeration for
CRB over FF-A.

The fourth patch adds support for the FF-A ACPI start method to
the TPM crb driver.

The fifth patch adds documentation explaining how the CRB driver
and FF-A relate.
