[PATCH v5 1/8] bloblist: add API to check the register conventions

[Raymond Mao]

Add bloblist_check_reg_conv() to check whether the bloblist is compliant
to the register conventions defined in Firmware Handoff specification.
This API can be used for all Arm platforms.

Signed-off-by: Raymond Mao <raymond....@linaro.org>
---
Changes in v2
- Refactor of bloblist_check_reg_conv().
Changes in v3
- bloblist_check_reg_conv() returns -ENOENT if OF_BOARD is disabled.
Changes in v4
- Add checking of signature register.
Changes in V5
- Drop the dependence on OF_BOARD.
