And here's a patch which does that:

8<-----------
From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
ARM: Avoid writing to auxctrl register unless it needs to be updated

As the auxiliary control register is not writable in non-secure mode
such as on OMAP, we must avoid writing the register when resuming in
non-secure mode.  Avoid this by moving the responsibility to the
SoC code in this case to ensure that the auxiliary control register
is restored before cpu_resume() is called.
