Subject: [022/111] ARM: 6299/1: errata: TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast a faulty ASID

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

commit cdf357f1e13a08a11261edacb3083746f65c1ed9 upstream.

On versions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r2p0, performing TLB invalidations by
ASID match can result in the incorrect ASID being broadcast to other CPUs.
As a consequence of this, the targetted TLB entries are not invalidated
across the system.

This workaround changes the TLB flushing routines to invalidate entries
regardless of the ASID.
