This fixes an issue reported by Ryan Harkin where 32-bit ARM platforms without
PSCI compliant firmware cannot be rebooted or powered off successfully at
boot time.

This is caused by a change which aimed to prevent system register accesses at
runtime. These registers are not virtually remapped, so their availability is
not guaranteed in that case. However, since the reboot/poweroff driver now
uses PSCI unconditionally, these non-PSCI platforms break.

This series addresses this regression by introducing a new system register
access library which switches into a non-functional mode at runtime, and wiring
it up for 32-bit VExpress platforms.


Ard Biesheuvel (3):
  ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVExpressPkg: add ArmPlatformSysConfigLib for runtime
  ArmVExpressPkg: use ArmVExpressSysConfigRuntimeLib by default
  ArmVExpressPkg: use PSCI for system reset only on AARCH64 platforms
