[ 4.087374] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
[ 4.092753] Rebooting in 1 seconds..
Because the bootloader (CFE) is not initializing the Read-ahead cache properly
on the second thread (TP1). Since the RAC was not initialized properly, we
should avoid flushing it at the risk of corrupting the instruction stream as
seen in the trace above.

v3: add changes suggested by Florian:
- Switch to a bool and remove unneeded initialization.
- Remove if from bcm6358_quirks().
- Improve commit description and bcm6358_quirks() comment.
v2: check if we're running on TP1 and invert logic.
