+ * This API implements a lightweight parameter passing mechanism that can be
+ * used to pass SoC Firmware configuration data from BL2 to BL31 by platforms or
+ * configurations that do not want to depend on libfdt. It is structured as a
+ * singly-linked list of parameter structures that all share the same common
+ * header but may have different (and differently-sized) structure bodies after
+ * that. The header contains a type field to indicate the parameter type (which
+ * is used to infer the structure length and how to interpret its contents) and
+ * a next pointer which contains the absolute physical address of the next
+ * parameter structure. The next pointer in the last structure block is set to
+ * NULL. The picture below shows how the parameters are kept in memory.
+ *
+ * head of list ---> +----------------+ --+
+ * | type | |
+ * +----------------+ |--> struct bl_aux_param
+ * +----| next | |
+ * | +----------------+ --+
+ * | | parameter data |
+ * | +----------------+
+ * |
+ * +--> +----------------+ --+
+ * | type | |
+ * +----------------+ |--> struct bl_aux_param
+ * NULL <---| next | |
+ * +----------------+ --+
+ * | parameter data |
+ * +----------------+
+ *
+ * Note: The SCTLR_EL3.A bit (Alignment fault check enable) is set in TF-A, so
+ * BL2 must ensure that each parameter struct starts on a 64-bit aligned address
+ * to avoid alignment faults. Parameters may be allocated in any address range
+ * accessible at the time of BL31 handoff (e.g. SRAM, DRAM, SoC-internal scratch
+ * registers, etc.), in particular address ranges that may not be mapped in
+ * BL31's page tables, so the parameter list must be parsed before the MMU is
+ * enabled and any information that is required at a later point should be
+ * deep-copied out into BL31-internal data structures.
