arm64: Add workaround for Fujitsu A64FX erratum 010001
On the Fujitsu-A64FX cores ver(1.0, 1.1), memory access may cause an undefined fault (Data abort, DFSC=0b111111). This fault occurs under a specific hardware condition when a load/store instruction performs an address translation. Any load/store instruction, except non-fault access including Armv8 and SVE might cause this undefined fault. The TCR_ELx.NFD1 bit is used by the kernel when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled to mitigate timing attacks against KASLR where the kernel address space could be probed using the FFR and suppressed fault on SVE loads. Since this erratum causes spurious exceptions, which may corrupt the exception registers, we clear the TCR_ELx.NFDx=1 bits when booting on an affected CPU.

+ This option adds workaround for Fujitsu-A64FX erratum E#010001.
+ On some variants of the Fujitsu-A64FX cores ver(1.0, 1.1), memory
+ accesses may cause undefined fault (Data abort, DFSC=0b111111).
+ This fault occurs under a specific hardware condition when a
+ load/store instruction performs an address translation using:
+ case-1 TTBR0_EL1 with TCR_EL1.NFD0 == 1.
+ case-2 TTBR0_EL2 with TCR_EL2.NFD0 == 1.
+ case-3 TTBR1_EL1 with TCR_EL1.NFD1 == 1.
+ case-4 TTBR1_EL2 with TCR_EL2.NFD1 == 1.
+
+ The workaround is to ensure these bits are clear in TCR_ELx.
+ The workaround only affect the Fujitsu-A64FX.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
