For affected CPUs, this approach enables the mitigation during EL3
initialization, following every PE reset. No mechanism is provided to
disable the mitigation at runtime.
This approach permanently mitigates the entire software stack and no
additional mitigation code is required in other software components.
TF-A implements this approach for the following affected CPUs:
* Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A72, by setting bit 55 (Disable load pass store) of
`CPUACTLR_EL1` (`S3_1_C15_C2_0`).
* Cortex-A73, by setting bit 3 of `S3_0_C15_C0_0` (not documented in the
Technical Reference Manual (TRM)).
* Cortex-A75, by setting bit 35 (reserved in TRM) of `CPUACTLR_EL1`
(`S3_0_C15_C1_0`).
Additionally, a new SMC interface is implemented to allow software
executing in lower ELs to discover whether the system is mitigated
against CVE-2018-3639.

Erratum 855971 applies to revision r0p3 or earlier Cortex-A72 CPUs. The
recommended workaround is to disable instruction prefetch.

At present, various CPU register macros that refer to CPUACTLR are named
ACTLR. This patch fixes that.
The previous register names are retained, but guarded by the
ERROR_DEPRECATED macro, so as not to break platforms that continue using
the old names.

In order to avoid Undefined behavior, left operand in left-shift
expressions needs to be unsigned, and of sufficient size. The safest and
most consistent approach is to use unsigned long long type.

This patch makes all the defines in the CPU libraries unique,
by prefixing them with the CPU name.
NOTE: PLATFORMS USING THESE MACROS WILL HAVE TO UPDATE THEIR CODE
TO START USING THE UPDATED NAMES

This patch adds cpumerrsr_el1 and l2merrsr_el1 to the register dump on
error for applicable CPUs.
These registers hold the ECC errors on L1 and L2 caches.
This patch updates the A53, A57, A72, A73 (l2merrsr_el1 only) CPU libraries.

The default reset values for the L2 Data & Tag RAM latencies on the
Cortex-A72 on Juno R2 are not suitable. This patch modifies
the Juno platform reset handler to configure the right settings
on Juno R2.
