The series adds initial support for the notifications and memory transaction
descriptor changes added in FF-A v1.1 specification.

The notification mechanism enables a requester/sender endpoint to notify
a service provider/receiver endpoint about an event with non-blocking
semantics.

A notification is akin to the doorbell between two endpoints in a
communication protocol that is based upon the doorbell/mailbox mechanism.

The framework is responsible for the delivery of the notification from the
sender to the receiver without blocking the sender. The receiver endpoint
relies on the OS scheduler for allocation of CPU cycles to handle a
notification.

OS is referred as the receiver’s scheduler in the context of notifications.
The framework is responsible for informing the receiver’s scheduler that
the receiver must be run since it has a pending notification.

The series also includes support for the new format of memory transaction
descriptors.

It also contains one fix for MEMORY LEND operation.

v1[1]->v2:
	- Added a fix for MEMORY LEND operation
	- Upgraded the driver version
	- Added support for the new format of memory transaction descriptors
	- Remove unnecessary partition ID information in the notification
	  callbacks
	- Fixed setting up drv_info->sched_recv_irq before enabling the SGIs
	- Added missing resetting of bitmap_created in notifications_cleanup()
	- Added some comments about GICv3 and SGI assumption
	- Removed partition ID from the notification hash table entries as
	  they are redundant/incorrect. Added the notification type instead
	  (SP/VM/Framework)
