Disable processor Cycle Counting in Secure state
In a system with ARMv8.5-PMU implemented:
- If EL3 is using AArch32, setting MDCR_EL3.SCCD to 1 disables counting
in Secure state in PMCCNTR.
- If EL3 is using AArch64, setting SDCR.SCCD to 1 disables counting in
Secure state in PMCCNTR_EL0.
So far this effect has been achieved by setting PMCR_EL0.DP (in AArch64)
or PMCR.DP (in AArch32) to 1 instead, but this isn't considered secure
as any EL can change that value.
