This small series reworks various bits of the host EL2 entry after
Andrew's extensive rework to move from direct function calls to a
SMCCC implementation.
The first 2 patches allow the use of direct function pointers at EL2,
something that we can't do at the moment (other than PC-relative
addressing). This requires a helper to translate pointers at runtime,
but the result is neat enough. This allows the rewrite of the host HVC
handling in a more maintainable way.
Note that this version now includes the result of a discussion with
Nick, providing some funky pointer mangling in order to make the use
of these pointers vaguely safer (no, they are not safe at all).
Another patch removes the direct use of kimage_voffset, which we won't
be able to trust for much longer.
The last two patches are just cleanups and optimisations.
* From v1 [1]:
- Merged the 3 first patches as fixes
- Added pointer mangling for function calls
- Moved EL2 entry ldp a couple of instructions later (as suggested
by Alex)
- Rebased on top of -rc3
