Commit Message

Daniel P. Smith May 31, 2022, 2:39 a.m. UTC
This commit is to move towards providing a uniform interface across
architectures to initialize the XSM framework. Specifically, it provides a
common handling of initialization failure by providing the printing of a
warning message.

For Arm, xsm_dt_init() was tailored to have an Arm specific expansion of the
return values. This expansion added a value to reflect whether the security
supported XSM policy module was the enforcing policy module. This was then used
to determine if a warning message would be printed. Despite this expansion,
like x86, Arm does not address any XSM initialization errors that may have
occurred.
