[PATCH v2 1/3] ARM: i.MX8M: atf: mark ATF start functions as __noreturn

The early exit in imx8m_atf_load_bl31 doesn't serve any real purpose.
If a too big TF-A ends up being loaded we shouldn't return, but
just panic outright, so the user fixes their barebox build.

Change the WARN_ON to a BUG_ON() and then mark all callers of this
function as __noreturn to document their purpose and to guide
optimization.
