The ARMv8 capable Allwinner A64 SoC comes out of reset in AArch32 mode. To run AArch64 code, we have to trigger a warm reset via the RMR register, which proceeds with code execution at the address stored in the RVBAR register. If the bootable payload in the FIT image is using a different architecture than the SPL has been compiled for, enter it via this said RMR switch mechanism, by writing the entry point address into the MMIO mapped, writable version of the RVBAR register. Then the warm reset is triggered via a system register write. If the payload architecture is the same as the SPL, we use the normal branch as usual.
