The VRAM of the PL111 on the FVP Base/Foundation models is described as
device memory rather than uncached memory, which is not an accurate
description of the nature of the region (i.e., a framebuffer), and may
result in problems when using accelerated string routines to access the
region, since this may legally involve unaligned accesses or DC ZVA
instructions, which are not allowed on device mappings.
So split of the 8 MB VRAM region into a separate region, and map it using
memory attributes.

There are three FVP variants for the Base and Foundation models:
- model with GICv2 legacy memory map (same location as the Versatile Express model)
- model with GICv2 and Base model memory map
- model with GICv3 and Base model memory map
The new code detects the variants to load the appropriate device tree.

The System Memory region might be out of the 32-bit memory space.
This change has been validated on the FVP AArch64 model using 4GB
of DRAM at 0x8_0000_0000:
- # System Memory (2GB)
- gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdSystemMemoryBase|0x80000000
- gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdSystemMemorySize|0x80000000
+ # System Memory (4GB)
+ gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdSystemMemoryBase|0x800000000
+ gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdSystemMemorySize|0x100000000
EFI Shell and Linux kernel boot successfully.
Note: This change has not been validated on AArch32. I expect some
early assembly code to not work.

- Setting DVI fails on VE models. The FVP models behave the same.
These have updated SYS ID numbers and they need to be added to the
driver.

Setting bit4 of SCC register 48 now triggers the erasing of the memory region
reserved for variable storage in NOR flash and the restoration of the default
headers in flash.

The idea is to keep ArmPkg responsible for the ARM architectural modules and ArmPlatformPkg
the ARM development platform packages (with their respective drivers).
ArmPlatformPkg: Reduce driver dependency on ArmPlatform.h
- Move some driver definitions from C-Macro to PCD values
- Unify PCD driver namespace

This driver implements the interface for the PL111 Lcd controller.
The LcdPlatformLib allows to set the platform specific requirements
needed by the platform for setting the LCD (oscillators, etc).
ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg: Implement LcdPlatformLib
This library exports the supported resolutions. It also allocates the
memory for the framebuffer and send the correct settings to the VExpress
motherboard microcontroller.

The purpose of this library is to create an interface to communicate
with the platform micro-controller.
It abstracts the communication protocol (eg: SPI, UART, etc) between
the application processor and the micro-controller.
ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg: Implement ArmPlaformSysConfigLib
This implementation allows to communicate with the microcontroller of the
Versatile Express motherboard.

This file contains the ARM Versatile Express motherboard definitions.
It allows to avoid duplication between different platforms based on ARM VExpress
motherboard.
