Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ARM: errata: Workaround errata A12 857271 / A17 857272

From: Sonny Rao <sonnyrao@...omium.org>

This adds support for working around errata A12 857271 / A17 857272.
These errata were causing hangs on rk3288-based Chromebooks and it was
confirmed that this workaround fixed the problems.  In the Chrome OS
3.14 kernel [1] this erratum was known as ERRATA_FOOBAR due to lack of
an official number from ARM (though the workaround of setting chicken
bit 10 came from ARM).  In the meantime ARM came up with official
errata numbers but never published the workaround upstream.

Let's actually get the workaround landed.
