[RFC PATCH v2 0/4] fix FF-A call failed with pKVM when ff-a driver is built-in

[Yeoreum Yun <yeoreum.yun@arm.com>]

commit 0e0546eabcd6 ("firmware: arm_ffa: Change initcall level of ffa_init() to rootfs_initcall")
changed the initcall level of ffa_init() to rootfs_initcall to address
an issue where IMA could not properly recognize the TPM device
when FF-A driver is built as built-in.

However, this introduces another problem: pKVM fails to handle FF-A calls
because it cannot trap the FFA_VERSION call invoked by ffa_init().

To ensure the TPM device is recognized when present in the system,
it is preferable to invoke again ima_init() at a later stage.
Deferred probing is resolved by deferred_probe_initcall(),
which runs at the late_initcall level.
Therefore, introduce an LSM initcall at late_initcall_sync and
invode ima_init() again to this level in case of TPM is probed yet
at the late_initcall stage.

With this change, revert the initcall level of ffa_init() back to
device_initcall. Additionally, to handle the case where ffa_init() runs
before kvm_init(), check whether pKVM has been initialized during ffa_init().
If not, defer initialization to prevent failures of FF-A calls
due to the inability to trap FFA_VERSION and FFA_RXTX_MAP in pKVM.

This patch is based on v7.0

Patch History
=============
from v1 to v2:
  - add notifier to make ffa-driver pkvm initialised.
  - modify to try initailisation again when IMA coudln't find proper TPM device.
