[PATCH v4 0/4] xen/arm: add i.MX8M platform and UART support

[Wig Cheng <onlywig@xxxxxxxxx>]

This series adds Xen support for the NXP i.MX8M family (i.MX8MP / MQ /
MM / MN).  It provides the console UART driver, its early printk, the
platform glue (SiP SMC whitelist for the calls the dom0 kernel issues
to TF-A), and a MAINTAINERS entry.

Tested on i.MX8MP (4x Cortex-A53, GICv3) with the vendor kernel 6.18:
dom0 boots to login on the hypervisor console, and a domU starts with a
PV disk and virtio devices running a full Wayland distro.

Notes for reviewers:

- Unlike i.MX8MQ, the i.MX8MP device tree uses the GIC as the root
  interrupt controller (interrupt-parent = <&gic>), so no device-tree
  workaround is needed and power domains keep working.

- The i.MX8M family has no SMMU, so device passthrough relies on the
  1:1 direct-mapped hardware domain.

- The SiP SMC whitelist forwards only the specific subfunctions the
  dom0 kernel issues, extracted from the vendor kernel call sites.  CPU
  and DRAM frequency scaling are both denied: the hardware domain
  cannot make an informed decision about resources it shares with the
  other domains.  dom0's i.MX8M DDRC devfreq driver issues the DDR DVFS
  call at boot; with it denied that driver just skips DRAM frequency
  scaling (the DRAM stays at the frequency set by firmware) and dom0
  boots normally.

Changes since v3:

- Patch 3: filter the SRC and NoC subfunctions with an explicit switch
  that lists each accepted subfunction, instead of a range check
  (Michal Orzel).  The NoC service now accepts only the QoS priority
  subfunction, and the unknown-function-id warning also prints the
  subfunction id.
- Patches 1, 2 and 4 are unchanged; all four patches now carry Michal's
  Reviewed-by.

Per-patch changelogs are in each patch.
