[PATCH v4] bloblist: fix bloblist convention check.

According to recently firmware handsoff spec [1]'s "Register usage at handoff
boundary", Transfer List's signature value was changed from 0x40_b10b
(3 bytes) to 4a0f_b10b (4 bytes).

As updating of TL's signature, register value of x1/r1 should be:

In aarch32's r1 value should be
    R1[23:0]: set to the TL signature (4a0f_b10b -> masked range value: 0f_b10b)
    R1[31:24]: version of the register convention ==  1

and

In aarch64's x1 value should be
    X1[31:0]: set to the TL signature (4a0f_b10b)
    X1[39:32]: version of the register convention ==  1
    X1[63:40]: MBZ
(See the [2] and [3]).

This patch fix problems:
   1. breaking X1 value with updated specification in aarch64
        - change of length of signature field.

   2. previous error value set in R1 in arm32.
        - length of signature should be 24, but it uses 32bit signature.

This patch is a breaking change. It works only TF-A is updated.
