  firmware: arm_ffa: Add support for IMPDEF value in the memory access descriptor (2025-10-13 10:34:46 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Arm FF-A fix for v6.18

The FF-A driver was updated to support specification version 1.2 but omitted
support for the 16-byte implementation-defined (IMPDEF) field introduced in
FF-A v1.2 within the Endpoint Memory Access Descriptor (EMAD). This omission
breaks all memory interfaces.

This change updates the EMAD sizing and offset logic to correctly handle the
FF-A v1.2 layout while preserving backward compatibility with older versions.
