For arm it's not possible to supply more than 4 parameters. To fully support SMC Calling Convention we need to be able to pass 8 parameters and have 4 return values. The OP-TEE driver in this patch set depends on this. I don't see how we can avoid the marshalling here. We could have two versions of the SMCCC functions, one simplified which only uses registers and one complete like this one with marshalling.
