Liming Sun 79e29cb8fb platform/mellanox: Add bootctl driver for Mellanox BlueField Soc
This commit adds the bootctl platform driver for Mellanox BlueField
Soc, which queries secure state and controls the eMMC boot partition
swapping by sending SMC calls to ATF running at EL3.

Below are the sequences of typical use case.

  1. User requests boot partition swapping, which could be on-demand or
     during boot-image upgrade via UEFI capsule;

  2. This bootctl driver handles the request and sends SMC call
     to ATF. ATF programs register BREADCRUMB0 which has value
     preserved during warm reset. It also programs eMMC to swap
     the boot partition;

  3. After software reset (rebooting), ATF BL1 (BootRom) checks
     register BREADCRUMB0 and enable watchdog if configured;

  4. If booting fails, the watchdog timer will trigger rebooting.
     In such case, ATF Boot ROM will switch the boot partition
     back to the previous one. This is a robust feature and used
     to prevent failure during boot partition upgrade.

Liming Sun 1357dfd726 platform/mellanox: Add TmFifo driver for Mellanox BlueField Soc
This commit adds the TmFifo platform driver for Mellanox BlueField
Soc. TmFifo is a shared FIFO which enables external host machine
to exchange data with the SoC via USB or PCIe. The driver is based
on virtio framework and has console and network access enabled.

Vadim Pasternak 5ec4a8ace0 platform/mellanox: Introduce support for Mellanox register access driver
Introduce new Mellanox platform driver to allow access to Mellanox
programmable device register space trough sysfs interface.
The driver purpose is to provide sysfs interface for user space for the
registers essential for system control and monitoring.
The sets of registers for sysfs access are supposed to be defined per
system type bases and include the registers related to system resets
operation, system reset causes monitoring and some kinds of mux selection.

Vadim Pasternak 1f976f6978 platform/x86: Move Mellanox platform hotplug driver to platform/mellanox
In preparation for making the hotplug driver build for different
architectures, move mlxcpld-hotplug.c to platform/mellanox and the
header to include/linux/platform_data as mlxreg.h to reflect the new
interface changes to come.

Replace references to CPLD with REG throughout the files, consistent
with the new name.
