arm64: psci: account for Trusted OS instances Software resident in the secure world (a "Trusted OS") may cause CPU_OFF calls for the CPU it is resident on to be denied. Such a denial would be fatal for the kernel, and so we must detect when this can happen before the point of no return. This patch implements Trusted OS detection for PSCI 0.2+ systems, using MIGRATE_INFO_TYPE and MIGRATE_INFO_UP_CPU. When a trusted OS is detected as resident on a particular CPU, attempts to hot unplug that CPU will be denied early, before they can prove fatal. Trusted OS migration is not implemented by this patch. Implementation of migratable UP trusted OSs seems unlikely, and the right policy for migration is unclear (and will likely differ across implementations). As such, it is likely that migration will require cooperation with Trusted OS drivers. PSCI implementations prior to 0.1 do not provide the facility to detect the presence of a Trusted OS, nor the CPU any such OS is resident on, so without additional information it is not possible to handle Trusted OSs with PSCI 0.1.
