arm64: errata: add workaround for cortex-a53 erratum #845719
When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on Cortex-A53, a load at EL0 from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32 bits of the virtual address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1 might return incorrect data. This patch works around the issue by writing to the contextidr_el1 register on the exception return path when returning to a 32-bit task. This workaround is patched in at runtime based on the MIDR value of the processor. Change-Id: Ic6a838daa6bc7ba1521c65049f14196565eaf545 Reviewed-by:Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Tested-by:
