[U-Boot] [PATCH v6 3/9] armv8: Add Secure Monitor/Hypervisor Call (SMC/HVC) infrastructure

This commit adds functions issuing calls to secure monitor or
hypervisore. This allows using services such as Power State
Coordination Interface (PSCI) provided by firmware, e.g. ARM
Trusted Firmware (ATF)

The SMC call can destroy all registers declared temporary by the
calling conventions. The clobber list is "x0..x17" because of
this
