Looking at other config options, we usually have <feature>=BOOLEAN (without
_enabled), so
I would just stick to "ffa". This would require changes in other places
accordingly.

Should be:
"Currently only a small subset of the FF-A specification is supported"

Applying this patch results in a failure here so you need to rebase it on top
of latest status.
Also, FWICS (can be checked by the toolstack maintainers) you are missing the
required
changes in:
- tools/golang/xenlight/helpers.gen.go
- tools/golang/xenlight/types.gen.go
- tools/ocaml/libs/xc/xenctrl.ml
- tools/ocaml/libs/xc/xenctrl.mli
