[RFC PATCH 0/2] VExpress64: Migrate to Standard Boot

[Said Nasibov]

This patch series migrates the vexpress64 platform to use the standard
boot framework (bootstd), moving away from legacy distro boot logic. As
part of this migration, a new semihosting boot method (bootmeth_smh) is
introduced.

Patch 1 adds the new `bootmeth_smh` implementation.
Patch 2 enables `bootstd` by default on vexpress64 and selects the
semihosting bootmeth when bootstd is active.

Tested on FVP_Base_RevC with a Linux kernel.

Said Nasibov (2):
  bootmeth: implement semihosting (smh) boot method
  vexpress64: replace distro boot with standard boot
