Maybe we discussed this in the past and I forgot,  but why would you need 
__asm_dcache_level, __asm_dcache_all, __asm_invalidate_dcache_alla etc in
the runtime section ?

You are randomly adding and deleting __packed cwin both structs. But you can't do that.
Those structs are defined in StandAloneMM.  This is the reason each struct
description has the corresponding EDK2 definition.

I think we discussed this in the past.  I don't want ifdefs in the code for
that.  FF-A is a discoverable bus.  So I think what we should do here, is
fire up the variable access driver -> probe for FF-A -> decide what to use.

So it looks something like

If you are registering this as a *runtime* service you should also tweak
the RT_PROPERTIES TABLE and enable runtime services (e.g SetVariable).
Otherwise having as runtime makes little sense.  To be honest I'd much
prefer this whole patchset without the runtime parts.  It's much easier to
review and reason about and we can always add runtime later.

The optee version of the function can't be on the efi_runtime section.  The
reason is that almost the entire of the OP-TEE subsystem is not marked as
runtime, which will lead to a crash if we ever take that path.

If we enable runtime discovery of optee vs ffa, we can get rid of that and
just pass an extra argument to mm_communicate
