I usually use Foundation Model.

It's just hard coded and should be the same value with that in DTS.

PSCI is not implemented in uboot-armv8. If booting u-boot on bare-metal
only spin table can be used. All we do is describing booting method(spin table)
and cpu release
address in DTS. Linux kernel get cpu release address from DTS also.
