Cortex-A55 is affected by a similar erratum, so rename the existing
workaround for errarum 1165522 so it can be used for both errata.

nit: erratum

I'd object that ARM64_ERRATUM_1319367 (and its big brother 1319537)
are also related to speculative AT execution, and yet are not covered
by this configuration symbol.

I can see three solutions to this:

- Either you call it SPECULATIVE_AT_VHE and introduce SPECULATIVE_AT_NVHE
  for symmetry

- Or you make SPECULATIVE_AT cover all the speculative AT errata, which
  may or may not work...

- Or even better, you just ammend the documentation to say that 1165522
  also covers the newly found A55 one (just like we have for A57/A72)

What do you think?
