[ARM] 5487/1: ARM errata: Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch

This patch adds the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8 (r1p0..r1p2)
erratum. The BTAC/BTB is now flushed at every context switch.

+	  This option enables the workaround for the 430973 Cortex-A8
+	  (r1p0..r1p2) erratum. If a code sequence containing an ARM/Thumb
+	  interworking branch is replaced with another code sequence at the
+	  same virtual address, whether due to self-modifying code or virtual
+	  to physical address re-mapping, Cortex-A8 does not recover from the
+	  stale interworking branch prediction. This results in Cortex-A8
+	  executing the new code sequence in the incorrect ARM or Thumb state.
+	  The workaround enables the BTB/BTAC operations by setting ACTLR.IBE
+	  and also flushes the branch target cache at every context switch.
+	  Note that setting specific bits in the ACTLR register may not be
+	  available in non-secure mode.
