Sandrine Bailleux a37255a205 Make the memory layout more flexible Currently the platform code gets to define the base address of each boot loader image. However, the linker scripts couteract this flexibility by enforcing a fixed overall layout of the different images. For example, they require that the BL3-1 image sits below the BL2 image. Choosing BL3-1 and BL2 base addresses in such a way that it violates this constraint makes the build fail at link-time. This patch requires the platform code to now define a limit address for each image. The linker scripts check that the image fits within these bounds so they don't rely anymore on the position of a given image in regard to the others.

Currently the platform code gets to define the base address of each
boot loader image. However, the linker scripts couteract this
flexibility by enforcing a fixed overall layout of the different
images. For example, they require that the BL3-1 image sits below
the BL2 image. Choosing BL3-1 and BL2 base addresses in such a way
that it violates this constraint makes the build fail at link-time.

This patch requires the platform code to now define a limit address
for each image. The linker scripts check that the image fits within
these bounds so they don't rely anymore on the position of a given
image in regard to the others.

Fixes ARM-software/tf-issues#163
