Hi Sughosh,

Please find my response inline marked [SAMI].

General feedback:
- Add reference to the SMCC v1.2 spec and FF-A spec in the file header.
- Do you plan to submit a similar patch for AArch32?
- Can you update the function documentation for ArmCallSvc () in ArmPkg\Include\Library\ArmSvcLib.h, please? 
  Ref: https://edk2-docs.gitbook.io/edk-ii-c-coding-standards-specification/appendix_a_common_examples#functioon-declarations

Regards,

Sami Mujawar

Subject: [PATCH v1 02/12] ArmPkg/ArmSvcLib: Return x4-x7 in output parameters

From: Achin Gupta <achin.gupta@arm.com>

The Arm SMC calling convention standard v1.2 allows 8 input and output
parameter registers. The FF-A specification relies on this
communication. This patch extends the number of output registers
returned by ArmCallSvc() to match this convention.
