xen/arm: arm64: Add cortex-A57 erratum 832075 workaround
The ARM erratum 832075 applies to certain revisions of Cortex-A57, one
of the workarounds is to change device loads into using load-acquire
semantics.
Use the alternative framework to enable the workaround only on affected
cores.
Whilst a guest could trigger the deadlock, it can be broken when the
processor is receiving an interrupt. As the Xen scheduler will always setup
a timer (firing to every 1ms to 300ms depending on the running time
slice) on each processor, the deadlock would last only few milliseconds
and only affects the guest time slice.
Therefore a malicious guest could only hurt itself. Note that all the
guests should implement/enable the workaround for the affected cores.

+ help
+ This option adds an alternative code sequence to work around ARM
+ erratum 832075 on Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2.
+
+ Affected Cortex-A57 parts might deadlock when exclusive load/store
+ instructions to Write-Back memory are mixed with Device loads.
+
+ The workaround is to promote device loads to use Load-Acquire
+ semantics.
+ Please note that this does not necessarily enable the workaround,
+ as it depends on the alternative framework, which will only patch
+ the kernel if an affected CPU is detected.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
