Subject: [PULL] arm64 pre-requisite patches for timer workarounds

Hi Catalin,

Please find below the pull request for the patches forming the base of
my errata workaround series. I expect Daniel to pull the full series
via his tree.

Thanks,

	M.

  arm64: cpu_errata: Add capability to advertise Cortex-A73 erratum 858921 (2017-04-07 11:22:08 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Pre-requisites for the arch timer errata workarounds:

- Allow checking of a CPU-local erratum
- Add CNTVCT_EL0 trap handler
- Define Cortex-A73 MIDR
- Allow an erratum to be match for all revisions of a core
- Add capability to advertise Cortex-A73 erratum 858921
