ARM: 6388/1: errata: DMB operation may be faulty

On versions of the Cortex-A9 up to and including r2p2, under rare
circumstances, a DMB instruction between 2 write operations may not
ensure the correct visibility ordering of the 2 writes.

This workaround sets a bit in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
causing the DMB instruction to behave like a DSB, which functions
correctly on the affected cores.

This option enables the workaround for the 742230 Cortex-A9
(r1p0..r2p2) erratum. Under rare circumstances, a DMB instruction
between two write operations may not ensure the correct visibility
ordering of the two writes. This workaround sets a specific bit in
the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9 which causes the DMB
instruction to behave as a DSB, ensuring the correct behaviour of
the two writes.
