[PATCH] ARM: i.MX8MP: adapt atf bl31 base addr

The usptream TF-A was shifting around the base address from version to
version. But finally with upstream TF-A v2.7 it is correctly set to
0x970000. This change was done since the final silicium has an SRAM size
of 576KB where as the pre-silicium had only 512KB.

The upstream TF-A has adapt it in verion v2.5 so the BL31 blob is at the
end of the SRAM. Unfortunately they had (accidental) reverted back to
0x960000 in v2.6. They noticed that and changed (again) back to 0x970000.
with v2.7.

This commit also adapts the documentation for the i.MX8MP-EVK to
reference the upstream TF-A. The new warning should point out that we
strongly recommended to use versions from v2.7 onwards, due to the
version mess explained above.
