Seeing a c&p (or c&rework) from arm-smccc.h, could you please describe:
1) Why can't you use the existing arm_smccc_1_1_hvc()? I checked, you
don't seem to be getting more than 4 values back.
The Gunyah APIs can return up to 8 values. As you observed though, these
initial patches are only using the first 4 values back. I'd like to use
the larger v1.2 so I don't need to update later.
2) If #1 is not possible, why can't you add necessary glue code to the
arm-smccc.h (as your code to support nargs/multiple return values is
generic enough) and use corresponding macro in asm/gunyah.h ?
I think the code here may be considered Gunyah-specific as I am limiting
to 8 arguments and return values. If I add to arm-smccc.h, I would need
to expand out to x17. Does it make sense to add another SMCCC 1.2
interface to arm-smccc.h?
