And remove the other functions in its place?

It would be nice to have some motivation here in the commit text.

Can desc be const?

So what is the benefit of this conversion? Now callers have to construct
a descriptor on the stack and call the function that would otherwise
accept some number of arguments. Are we going to be adding more register
based APIs? It would seem simpler to just have a similar interface that
smccc has that takes some fixed number of registers and then suffer the
few extra register moves of some random value like 0 when they're not
used by the secure world.
