[PATCH v14 10/44] arm64: RMI: Add support for SRO

RMM v2.0 introduces the concept of "Stateful RMI Operations" (SRO). This
means that an SMC can return with an operation still in progress. The
host is excepted to continue the operation until is reaches a conclusion
(either success or failure). During this process the RMM can request
additional memory ('donate') or hand memory back to the host
('reclaim'). The host can request an in progress operation is cancelled,
but still continue the operation until it has completed (otherwise the
incomplete operation may cause future RMM operations to fail).

The SRO is tracked using a struct rmi_sro_state object which keeps track
of any memory which has been allocated but not yet consumed by the RMM
or reclaimed from the RMM. This allows the memory to be reused in a
future request within the same operation. It will also permit an
operation to be done in a context where memory allocation may be
difficult (e.g. atomic context) with the option to abort the operation
and retry the memory allocation outside of the atomic context. The
memory stored in the struct rmi_sro_state object can then be reused on
the subsequent attempt.

v14:
 * SRO support has improved although is still not fully complete. The
   infrastructure has been moved out of KVM.
