PATCH v3 1/2 firmware: smccc: coco: Manage arm-smccc platform device and CCA auxiliary drivers

Make the SMCCC driver responsible for registering the arm-smccc platform device and after confirming the relevant SMCCC function IDs, create the arm_cca_guest auxiliary device.

Also update the arm-cca-guest driver to use the auxiliary device interface instead of the platform device (arm-cca-dev). The removal of the platform device registration will follow in a subsequent patch, allowing this change to be applied without immediately breaking existing userspace dependencies [1].

PATCH v3 2/2 coco: guest: arm64: Drop dummy RSI platform device stub

The SMCCC firmware driver now creates the arm-smccc platform device and also creates the CCA auxiliary devices once the RSI ABI is discovered. This makes the arch-specific arm64_create_dummy_rsi_dev() helper redundant. Remove the arm-cca-dev platform device registration and let the SMCCC probe manage the RSI device.

systemd match on platform:arm-cca-dev for confidential vm detection [1]. Losing the platform device registration can break that. Keeping this removal in its own change makes it easy to revert if that regression blocks the rollout.

v3 cover Switch Arm CCA to use an auxiliary device from a platform device

In reply to Aneesh Kumar K.V (Arm)

As discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]

The generic feedback was that a platform device should not be used when there is no underlying platform resource to represent. The existing CCA support uses a platform device solely to anchor the TSM interface in the device hierarchy, which is not an appropriate use of a platform device. Instead, introduce an auxiliary device to track CCA support.

The TSM framework uses the device abstraction to provide cross-architecture TSM and TEE I/O functionality, including:
Enumerating available platform TEE I/O capabilities Provisioning connections between the platform TSM and device DSM

For the CCA platform, the resulting device hierarchy appears as follows:

# cd /sys/class/tsm/
# ls -al
total 0
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 0 Jan  1 00:01 .
drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 0 Jan  1 00:00 ..
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Jan  1 00:01 tsm0 -> ../../devices/platform/arm-smccc/arm_cca_host.arm-rmi-dev.0/tsm/tsm0
