Add a separate documentation directory for TEE subsystem since it is a standalone subsystem which already offers devices consumed by multiple different subsystem drivers. Split overall TEE subsystem documentation modularly where: - The userspace API has been moved to Documentation/userspace-api/tee.rst. - The driver API has been moved to Documentation/driver-api/tee.rst. - The first module covers the overview of TEE subsystem. - The further modules are dedicated to different TEE implementations like: - OP-TEE - AMD-TEE - and so on for future TEE implementation support.

|
This loads the BL32 image for OP-TEE as firmware when the driver is
|
|
probed. This returns -EPROBE_DEFER until the firmware is loadable from
|
|
the filesystem which is determined by checking the system_state until
|
|
it is in SYSTEM_RUNNING. This also requires enabling the corresponding
|
|
option in Trusted Firmware for Arm. The documentation there explains
|
|
the security threat associated with enabling this as well as
|
|
mitigations at the firmware and platform level.
