This patch added additional sanity and increases an understanding for
getting proper value from the first argument for SMC call on aarch64
according to SMCC Convention.

I would suggest the following commit message:

"xen/arm: optee: The function identifier is always 32-bit

Per the SMCCC specification (see section 3.1 in ARM DEN 0028D), the
function identifier is only stored in the least significant
32-bits. The most significant 32-bits should be ignored.

The function optee_handle_call() is now updated to ignore the most
significant 32-bits.

"

Note that I used the version D rather than B because the latter has
buggy wording (it seems to suggest that the least significants bits
should be ignored).

Furthermore, I checked vsmc.c (the layer that dispatch the SMC) and it
was already handled properly thanks to commit 7f4217cc6057 "xen/arm:
vsmc: The function identifier is always 32-bit".

I would suggest:

I can update it while committing, if both Volodymyr and you are happy
with changes.

I'm totally fine with the proposed changes. Thank you for tidying this up.

Thanks! I have updated the patch and committed it.

Cheers,
