As described in the commit 111a833dc5cb ("firmware: arm_ffa: Set
reserved/MBZ fields to zero in the memory descriptors") some fields in
the memory descriptor have to be zeroed explicitly. The handle field is
one of these, but it was left out from that change, fix this now.

The transmit buffers allocated by the driver can be used to transmit data
by any messages/commands needing the buffer. However, it is not guaranteed
to have been zero-ed before every new transmission and hence it will just
contain residual value from the previous transmission. There are several
reserved fields in the memory descriptors that must be zero(MBZ). The
receiver can reject the transmission if any such MBZ fields are non-zero.

While we can set the whole page to zero, it is not optimal as most of the
fields get initialised to the value required for the current transmission.

So, just set the reserved/MBZ fields to zero in the memory descriptors
explicitly to honour the requirement and keep the receiver happy.

<title>firmware: arm_ffa: Fix FFA device names for logical partitions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:19b8766459c41c6f318f8a548cc1c66dffd18363</id>
<content type='text'>
Each physical partition can provide multiple services each with UUID.
Each such service can be presented as logical partition with a unique
combination of VM ID and UUID. The number of distinct UUID in a system
will be less than or equal to the number of logical partitions.

However, currently it fails to register more than one logical partition
or service within a physical partition as the device name contains only
VM ID while both VM ID and UUID are maintained in the partition information.
The kernel complains with the below message:

By virtue of being random enough to avoid collisions when generated in a
distributed system, there is no way to compress UUID keys to the number
of bits required to identify each. We can eliminate '-' in the name but
it is not worth eliminating 4 bytes and add unnecessary logic for doing
that. Also v1.0 doesn't provide the UUID of the partitions which makes
it hard to use the same for the device name.

So to keep it simple, let us alloc an ID using ida_alloc() and append the
same to "arm-ffa" to make up a unique device name. Also stash the id value
in ffa_dev to help freeing the ID later when the device is destroyed.

Commit bb1be7498500 ("firmware: arm_ffa: Add v1.1 get_partition_info support")
adds support to discovery the UUIDs of the partitions or just fetch the
partition count using the PARTITION_INFO_GET_RETURN_COUNT_ONLY flag.

However the commit doesn't handle the fact that the older version doesn't
understand the flag and must be MBZ which results in firmware returning
invalid parameter error. That results in the failure of the driver probe
which is in correct.

Limit the usage of the PARTITION_INFO_GET_RETURN_COUNT_ONLY flag for the
versions above v1.0(i.e v1.1 and onwards) which fixes the issue.

<title>firmware: arm_ffa: Check if ffa_driver remove is present before executing</title>

Currently ffa_drv-&gt;remove() is called unconditionally from
ffa_device_remove(). Since the driver registration doesn't check for it
and allows it to be registered without .remove callback, we need to check
for the presence of it before executing it from ffa_device_remove() to
above a NULL pointer dereference like the one below:

<title>driver core: make struct bus_type.uevent() take a const *</title>

The uevent() callback in struct bus_type should not be modifying the
device that is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the
function signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use
this callback.

FF-A function IDs and error codes will be needed in the hypervisor too,
so move to them to the header file where they can be shared. Rename the
version constants with an "FFA_" prefix so that they are less likely
to clash with other code in the tree.

<title>firmware: arm_ffa: Split up ffa_ops into info, message and memory operations</title>

<content type='text'>
In preparation to make memory operations accessible for a non
ffa_driver/device, it is better to split the ffa_ops into different
categories of operations: info, message and memory. The info and memory
are ffa_device independent and can be used without any associated
ffa_device from a non ffa_driver.

However, we don't export these info and memory APIs yet without the user.
The first users of these APIs can export them.

FF-A v1.1 adds a flag in the partition properties to indicate if the
partition runs in the AArch32 or AArch64 execution state. Use the same
to set-up the 32-bit execution flag mode in the ffa_dev automatically
if the detected firmware version is above v1.0 and ignore any requests
to do the same from the ffa_driver.

missing in v1.0 and which the driver workarounds by using UUIDs supplied
by the ffa_drivers.

Add the v1.1 get_partition_info support and disable the workaround if
the detected FF-A version is greater than v1.0.
