Subject: [PATCH v4 06/12] firmware: qcom_scm: Add a prep version of
 auth_and_reset function

For memory passed to TrustZone (TZ), it must either be part of a pool
registered with TZ or explicitly registered via SHMbridge SMC calls.
When Gunyah hypervisor is present, PAS SMC calls from Linux running at
EL1 are trapped by Gunyah running @ EL2, which handles SHMbridge
creation for both metadata and remoteproc carveout memory before
invoking the calls to TZ.

On SoCs running with a non-Gunyah-based hypervisor, Linux must take
responsibility for creating the SHM bridge before invoking PAS SMC
calls. For the auth_and_reset() call, the remoteproc carveout memory
must first be registered with TZ via a SHMbridge SMC call and once
authentication and reset are complete, the SHMbridge memory can be
deregistered.

Introduce qcom_scm_pas_prepare_and_auth_reset(), which sets up the SHM
bridge over the remoteproc carveout memory when Linux operates at EL2.
This behavior is indicated by a new field added to the PAS context data
structure. The function then invokes the auth_and_reset SMC call.
