arm64: RSI: fix field-spanning write warning in attestation token init
The challenge is passed in registers a1 through a8. However, copying to
®s.a1 makes FORTIFY treat the destination as the single a1 field,
resulting in a field-spanning write warning. [1]
Overlay the SMCCC register structure with an RSI-specific argument
layout and copy the challenge into an explicit 64-byte array. This keeps
the existing a1-a8 argument encoding while giving the copy a correctly
sized destination object.
