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.
