refactor startup a bit to make it more clear:
- Do not call start_atf() when not in EL3 rather than immediately
returning from the function
- rename start_atf() to nxp_imx8mm_evk_init_early() and call
nxp_imx8mm_evk_init_early() from nxp_imx8mm_evk_start() directly
This is done in preparation for a series which changes
nxp_imx8mm_evk_init_early() to take a device tree pointer.
