These two patches (back-ported from 4.15) implement a work-around for a rare but serious erratum in Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies Falkor cores. One small merge conflict in arch/arm64/Kconfig was resolved when back-porting patch #2. P.S. I couldn't find any good examples of submitting a back-ported patch with resolved merge conflicts to stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, so I hope I'm not forgetting anything.
