Zelalem Aweke	6c09af9f8b	feat(rme): run BL2 in root world when FEAT_RME is enabled This patch enables BL2 to run in root world (EL3) which is needed as per the security model of RME-enabled systems. Using the existing BL2_AT_EL3 TF-A build option is not convenient because that option assumes TF-A BL1 doesn't exist, which is not the case for RME-enabled systems. For the purposes of RME, we use a normal BL1 image but we also want to run BL2 in EL3 as normally as possible, therefore rather than use the special bl2_entrypoint function in bl2_el3_entrypoint.S, we use a new bl2_entrypoint function (in bl2_rme_entrypoint.S) which doesn't need reset or mailbox initialization code seen in the el3_entrypoint_common macro. The patch also cleans up bl2_el3_entrypoint.S, moving the bl2_run_next_image function to its own file to avoid duplicating code.

feat(rme): run BL2 in root world when FEAT_RME is enabled

This patch enables BL2 to run in root world (EL3) which is
needed as per the security model of RME-enabled systems.

Using the existing BL2_AT_EL3 TF-A build option is not convenient
because that option assumes TF-A BL1 doesn't exist, which is not
the case for RME-enabled systems. For the purposes of RME, we use
a normal BL1 image but we also want to run BL2 in EL3 as normally as
possible, therefore rather than use the special bl2_entrypoint
function in bl2_el3_entrypoint.S, we use a new bl2_entrypoint
function (in bl2_rme_entrypoint.S) which doesn't need reset or
mailbox initialization code seen in the el3_entrypoint_common macro.

The patch also cleans up bl2_el3_entrypoint.S, moving the
bl2_run_next_image function to its own file to avoid duplicating
code.
