In case where an interrupt handler executing from EL3 makes a call into
StandaloneMM, the handler in EL3 makes an spm call into StandaloneMM using
PLAT_SPM_BUF_BASE buffer base address. This PLAT_SPM_BUF_BASE is a shared
buffer between EL3 and S-EL0. This is where the following check fails and leads
to spm call failure. So this change would help resolve this issue.
