ARM: 6743/1: errata: interrupted ICALLUIS may prevent completion of broadcasted operation 

On versions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r3p0, an interrupted ICIALLUIS
operation may prevent the completion of a following broadcasted
operation if the second operation is received by a CPU before the
ICIALLUIS has completed, potentially leading to corrupted entries in
the cache or TLB.

This workaround sets a bit in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
causing CP15 maintenance operations to be uninterruptible.

This option enables the workaround for the 751472 Cortex-A9 (prior
to r3p0) erratum. An interrupted ICIALLUIS operation may prevent the
completion of a following broadcasted operation if the second
operation is received by a CPU before the ICIALLUIS has completed,
potentially leading to corrupted entries in the cache or TLB.
