The T241 platform suffers from the T241-FABRIC-4 erratum which causes
unexpected behavior in the GIC when multiple transactions are received
simultaneously from different sources. This hardware issue impacts
NVIDIA server platforms that use more than two T241 chips
interconnected. Each chip has support for 320 {E}SPIs.
This issue occurs when multiple packets from different GICs are
incorrectly interleaved at the target chip. The erratum text below
specifies exactly what can cause multiple transfer packets susceptible
to interleaving and GIC state corruption. GIC state corruption can
lead to a range of problems, including kernel panics, and unexpected
behavior.
>From the erratum text:
"In some cases, inter-socket AXI4 Stream packets with multiple
transfers, may be interleaved by the fabric when presented to ARM
Generic Interrupt Controller. GIC expects all transfers of a packet
to be delivered without any interleaving.
The following GICv3 commands may result in multiple transfer packets
over inter-socket AXI4 Stream interface:
- Register reads from GICD_I* and GICD_N*
- Register writes to 64-bit GICD registers other than GICD_IROUTERn*
- ITS command MOVALL
Multiple commands in GICv4+ utilize multiple transfer packets,
including VMOVP, VMOVI, VMAPP, and 64-bit register accesses."
This issue impacts system configurations with more than 2 sockets,
that require multi-transfer packets to be sent over inter-socket
AXI4 Stream interface between GIC instances on different sockets.
GICv4 cannot be supported. GICv3 SW model can only be supported
with the workaround. Single and Dual socket configurations are not
impacted by this issue and support GICv3 and GICv4."

Writing to the chip alias region of the GICD_In{E} registers except
GICD_ICENABLERn has an equivalent effect as writing to the global
distributor. The SPI interrupt deactivate path is not impacted by
the erratum.
To fix this problem, implement a workaround that ensures read accesses
to the GICD_In{E} registers are directed to the chip that owns the
SPI, and disable GICv4.x features. To simplify code changes, the
gic_configure_irq() function uses the same alias region for both read
and write operations to GICD_ICFGR.

At the moment we probe for the Random Number Generator SMCCC service,
and use that in the core code (arch_get_random). However the hardware
entropy can also be useful to access from userland, and be it to assess
its quality.
Register a platform device when the SMCCC TRNG service is detected, to
allow a hw_random driver to hook onto this.
The function registering the device is deliberately made in a way which
allows expansion, so other services that could be exposed via a platform
device (or some other interface), can be added here easily.

SMCCC v1.2 requires that all SVE state be preserved over SMC calls which
introduces substantial overhead in the common case where there is no SVE
state in the registers. To avoid this SMCCC v1.3 introduces a flag which
allows the caller to say that there is no state that needs to be preserved
in the registers. Make use of this flag, setting it if the SMCCC version
indicates support for it and the TIF_ flags indicate that there is no live
SVE state in the registers, this avoids placing any constraints on when
SMCCC calls can be done or triggering extra saving and reloading of SVE
register state in the kernel.
This would be straightforward enough except for the rather entertaining
inline assembly we use to do SMCCC v1.1 calls to allow us to take advantage
of the limited number of registers it clobbers. Deal with this by having a
function which we call immediately before issuing the SMCCC call to make
our checks and set the flag. Using alternatives the overhead if SVE is
supported but not detected at runtime can be reduced to a single NOP.

Although the SMCCC specification provides some limited functionality for
describing the presence of hypervisor and firmware services, this is
generally applicable only to functions designated as "Arm Architecture
Service Functions" and no portable discovery mechanism is provided for
standard hypervisor services, despite having a designated range of
function identifiers reserved by the specification.
In an attempt to avoid the need for additional firmware changes every
time a new function is added, introduce a UID to identify the service
provider as being compatible with KVM. Once this has been established,
additional services can be discovered via a feature bitmap.

The ARM DEN0098 document describe an SMCCC based firmware service to
deliver hardware generated random numbers. Its existence is advertised
according to the SMCCC v1.1 specification.
Add a (dummy) call to probe functions implemented in each architecture
(ARM and arm64), to determine the existence of this interface.
For now this return false, but this will be overwritten by each
architecture's support patch.

We need to export both arm_smccc_1_1_get_conduit and arm_smccc_get_version
to allow several modules make use of them. Arm FFA, Arm SCMI and PTP
drivers are few drivers that are planning to use these functions.
Let us export them in preparation to add support for SCMI as module.

For backward compatibility reasons, PSCI maintains SMCCC version as
SMCCC didn't provide ARM_SMCCC_VERSION_FUNC_ID until v1.1.
PSCI initialises both the SMCCC version and conduit. Similar to the
conduit, let us provide accessors to fetch the SMCCC version also so
that other SMCCC v1.1+ features can use it.

In order to add newer SMCCC v1.1+ functionality and to avoid cluttering
PSCI firmware driver with SMCCC bits, let us move the SMCCC specific
details under drivers/firmware/smccc/smccc.c
We can also drop conduit and smccc_version from psci_operations structure
as SMCCC was the sole user and now it maintains those.
No functionality change in this patch though.
