This small series separates "bloblist" and "standard passage" to allow
for these similar concepts to explore solutions to problems without
introduces breaking changes to the other.

In previous commit, incoming standard passage is used by default
when initializing the bloblist, so explicitly BLOBLIST_PASSAGE is
no more needed.
Rename it as BLOBLIST_PASSAGE_MANDATORY to determine the behaviors
when an incoming transfer list does not exist or is invalid.
When it is selected, incoming standard passage is mandatory and
U-Boot will report an error when a valid incoming transfer list is
missing.

Refactor the xferlist to remove the relocating when bloblist passed
from the boot args.
Refactor bloblist init to use incoming standard passage by default
if a valid transfer list exists in the boot args.
For bloblist relocation, use the actual total size if it has a smaller
BLOBLIST_SIZE_RELOC.

This series of patches enhances the vexpress64 platform by enabling bloblist
support. It also introduces support for CONFIG_BLOBLIST_PASSAGE. This is
necessary to boot vexpress64 and other boards without manually specifying a
fixed address and size for the bloblist.
After this change, all the bloblist init modes are supported (i.e., fixed,
alloc, passage) and Vexpress64 boots with CONFIG_BLOBLIST_PASSAGE.

bloblist_find function only returns the pointer of blob data,
which is fine for those self-describing data like FDT.
But as a common scenario, an interface is needed to retrieve both
the pointer and the size of the blob data.
Add a few ut test cases for the new api.

On Arm platforms that use ACPI they cannot rely on the "spin-table"
CPU bringup usually defined in the FDT. Thus implement the
'ACPI Multi-processor Startup for ARM Platforms', also referred to as
'ACPI parking protocol'.
The ACPI parking protocol works similar to the spin-table mechanism, but
the specification also covers lots of shortcomings of the spin-table
implementations.
Every CPU defined in the ACPI MADT table has it's own 4K page where the
spinloop code and the OS mailbox resides. When selected the U-Boot board
code must make sure that the secondary CPUs enter u-boot after relocation
as well, so that they can enter the spinloop code residing in the ACPI
parking protocol pages.
The OS will then write to the mailbox and generate an IPI to release the
CPUs from the spinloop code.
For now it's only implemented on ARMv8, but can easily be extended to
other platforms, like ARMv7.
TEST: Boots all CPUs on qemu-system-aarch64 -machine raspi4b

According to recently firmware handsoff spec [1]'s "Register usage at handoff
boundary", Transfer List's signature value was changed from 0x40_b10b
(3 bytes) to 4a0f_b10b (4 bytes).
As updating of TL's signature, register value of x1/r1 should be:
In aarch32's r1 value should be
R1[23:0]: set to the TL signature (4a0f_b10b -> masked range value: 0f_b10b)
R1[31:24]: version of the register convention == 1
and
In aarch64's x1 value should be
X1[31:0]: set to the TL signature (4a0f_b10b)
X1[39:32]: version of the register convention == 1
X1[63:40]: MBZ
(See the [2] and [3]).
This patch fix problems:
1. breaking X1 value with updated specification in aarch64
- change of length of signature field.
2. previous error value set in R1 in arm32.
- length of signature should be 24, but it uses 32bit signature.
This patch is a breaking change. It works only TF-A is updated.

Typically the bloblist is set up after the devicetree is present. This
makes sense because bloblist may use malloc() to allocate the space it
needs.
However sometimes the devicetree itself may be present in the bloblist.
In that case it is at a known location in memory so we can init the
bloblist very early, before devicetree.
Add a flag to indicate whether the bloblist has been inited. Add a
function to init it only if needed. Use that in the init sequence.

At present we do support allocating the bloblist but the Kconfig is a bit
strange, since we still have to specify an address in that case. Partly
this is because it is a pain to have CONFIG options that disappears when
its dependency is enabled. It means that we must have #ifdefs in the code,
either in the C code or header file.
Make use of IF_ENABLED_INT() and its friend to solve that problem, so we
can separate out the location of bloblist into a choice. Put the address
and size into variables so we can log the result.
Add the options for SPL as well, so we can use CONFIG_IS_ENABLED().

At present if someone adds a tag in the middle of the list it works well
enough within a U-Boot build. But if these tags are used in another
project, or with an older version of SPL, the numbers make become
inconsistent.

Allocate areas for existing U-Boot tags and set up an area for use by
projects and vendors, as well as for private use. Keep tags above
0x10000 unallocated for now.

At present all tables are placed starting at address f0000 in memory, and
can be up to 64KB in size. If the tables are very large, this may not
provide enough space.
Also if the tables point to other tables (such as console log or a ramoops
area) then we must allocate other memory anyway.
The bloblist is a nice place to put these tables since it is contiguous,
which makes it easy to reserve this memory for linux using the 820 tables.
Add an option to put some of the tables in the bloblist. For SMBIOS and
ACPI, create suitable pointers from the f0000 region to the new location
of the tables.

At present there is no standard way in U-Boot to pass information from SPL
to U-Boot proper. But sometimes SPL wants to convey information to U-Boot
that U-Boot cannot easily figure out. For example, if SPL sets up SDRAM
then it might want to pass the size of SDRAM, or the location of each
bank, to U-Boot proper.
Add a new 'bloblist' feature which provides this. A bloblist is set up in
the first phase of U-Boot that runs (i.e. TPL or SPL). The location of
this info may be in SRAM or CAR (x86 cache-as-RAM) or somewhere else.
Information placed in this region is preserved (with a checksum) through
TPL and SPL and ends up in U-Boot. At this point it is copied into SDRAM
so it can be used after relocation.
