This is indeed an interesting piece of information, thanks a lot!

>From what I understood in previous discussions for this series here in
the Kernel, and on U-Boot ML: JR0 is required to be held reserved in
S-World for HAB to operate, and this is clearly communicated by NXP in [1].
If my understanding is correct, then upstream TF-A either does not support
or breaks the HAB feature.

I've been following the build documentation in U-Boot, where the downstream
TF-A is listed as build prequisites [2] without any mentioning of upstream,
hence I received a readout that matched the BootROM "1-to-1".

I believe that if the information from NXP regarding JR0 reservation for
HAB is correct (and I have no reasons to doubt it), then upstream TF-A
should be adapted in order for HAB feature to work, and in that case this
patch brings correct HW state description as seeing from Linux.

And in contrary, if the upstream TF-A is not adjusted to include HAB
support - then applying this patch would effectively just "remove" one
JR device, still keeping 2 additional available nodes for HW crypto
operations in Kernel, with added benefit that both upstream and
downstream TF-A can be used during the boot without seeing issues later
in the Kernel.
