Hence TRBE_ERRATA_MAX needs to be updated manually here when new
TRBE specific erratums get added to the cpucap list. Hence lets
add a comment indicating that the TRBE_ERRATA_MAX needs explicit
syncing with changes to cpucap list.

This could be moved further down just before the 'return' statement.
Lets not interrupt cpudata init sequence, rather run all the errata
detection right at the end.
