    arm64: errata: Add detection for TRBE trace data corruption
    
    [ Upstream commit 708e8af4924ec2fdd5b81fe09192c6bac2f86935 ]
    
    TRBE implementations affected by Arm erratum #1902691 might corrupt trace
    data or deadlock, when it's being written into the memory. So effectively
    TRBE is broken and hence cannot be used to capture trace data. This adds
    a new errata ARM64_ERRATUM_1902691 in arm64 errata framework.

+	  This option adds the workaround for ARM Cortex-A510 erratum 1902691.
+
+	  Affected Cortex-A510 core might cause trace data corruption, when being written
+	  into the memory. Effectively TRBE is broken and hence cannot be used to capture
+	  trace data.
+
+	  Work around this problem in the driver by just preventing TRBE initialization on
+	  affected cpus. The firmware must have disabled the access to TRBE for the kernel
+	  on such implementations. This will cover the kernel for any firmware that doesn't
+	  do this already.
+
+	  If unsure, say Y.
