Some PSCI commands cause a REC exit and the host has to call
RMI_PSCI_COMPLETE to provide the status value to return to the guest.

Changes since v14:
* Dropped the support for providing the target REC for a PSCI call (as
per v2.0-bet2 spec).
Changes since v13:
* The ioctl KVM_ARM_VCPU_RMI_PSCI_COMPLETE has gone. The RMI call is
made automatically just before entering the REC again.
Changes since v12:
* Change return code for non-realms to -ENXIO to better represent that
the ioctl is invalid for non-realms (checkpatch is insistent that
"ENOSYS means 'invalid syscall nr' and nothing else").
Changes since v11:
* RMM->RMI renaming.
Changes since v6:
* Use vcpu_is_rec() rather than kvm_is_realm(vcpu->kvm).
* Minor renaming/formatting fixes.

We don't have to deal with AFFINITY_INFO anymore with the RMM
maintaining the MPIDR to REC mapping. This can be removed.

Otherwise looks good to me.
