[PATCH 1/7] arm: firmware: Check firmware is running or not

From: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park at samsung.com>

To support multi-platform, it needs to know it's running under secure
OS or not.  Sometimes it needs to access physical address by SMC calls.

e.g.,
        if (firmware_run()) {
                addr = physical address;
        } else {
                addr = virtual address;
        }

        call_firmware_ops(read_address, addr, &value);
