The current non-sec switching code suffers from one major issue: it cannot run in secure RAM, as a large part of u-boot still needs to be run while we're switched to non-secure.
This patch reworks the whole HYP/non-secure strategy by:
- making sure the secure code is the *last* thing u-boot executes before entering the payload
- performing an exception return from secure mode directly into the payload
- allowing the code to be dynamically relocated to secure RAM before switching to non-secure.
This involves quite a bit of horrible code, specially as u-boot relocation is quite primitive.

It seems like patch 07/13 does not apply properly on top of current ARM. Can you have a look? If a rebased V3 is needed, you can remove patch 01 from the list (or if it is simpler to you, keep it in and I'll just ignore it when applying).
Amicalement,
