Add the documentation for the bitmap firmware registers in
psci.rst. This includes the details for KVM_REG_ARM_STD_BMAP,
KVM_REG_ARM_STD_HYP_BMAP, and KVM_REG_ARM_VENDOR_HYP_BMAP
registers.

Since the document is growing to carry other hypercall related
information, make necessary adjustments to present the document
in a generic sense, rather than being PSCI focused.

-This means that a guest booted on two different versions of KVM can

+Contrary to the above registers, the following registers exposes the hypercall
+services in the form of a feature-bitmap. This bitmap is translated to the
+services that are exposed to the guest. There is a register defined per service
+call owner and can be accessed via GET/SET_ONE_REG interface.
+
+By default, these registers are set with the upper limit of the features that
+are supported. User-space can discover this configuration via GET_ONE_REG. If
+unsatisfied, the user-space can write back the desired bitmap back via
+SET_ONE_REG. The features for the registers that are untouched, probably because
+userspace isn't aware of them, will be exposed as is to the guest.
+
+The psuedo-firmware bitmap register are as follows:
+
+* KVM_REG_ARM_STD_BMAP:
+    Controls the bitmap of the ARM Standard Secure Service Calls.
+
+  The following bits are accepted:
+
+    KVM_REG_ARM_STD_BIT_TRNG_V1_0:
+      The bit represents the services offered under v1.0 of ARM True Random
+      Number Generator (TRNG) specification, ARM DEN0098.
+
+* KVM_REG_ARM_STD_HYP_BMAP:
+    Controls the bitmap of the ARM Standard Hypervisor Service Calls.
+
+  The following bits are accepted:
+
+    KVM_REG_ARM_STD_HYP_BIT_PV_TIME:
+      The bit represents the Paravirtualized Time service as represented by
+      ARM DEN0057A.
+
+* KVM_REG_ARM_VENDOR_HYP_BMAP:
+    Controls the bitmap of the Vendor specific Hypervisor Service Calls.
+
+  The following bits are accepted:
