can we have a word from someone from NVIDIA about which Tegra versions/revisions need 
which erratum applied? 

Currently the kernel has selections for the following errata (on ARM):

	T2x		T30
					ERRATA_430973			Stale prediction on replaced interworking branch
					ERRATA_458693			Processor deadlock when a false hazard is created
					ERRATA_460075			Data written to the L2 cache can be overwritten
											with stale data
	x				ERRATA_742230			DMB operation may be faulty
					ERRATA_742231			Incorrect hazard handling in the SCU may lead to
											data corruption
					PL310_ERRATA_588369	Clean & Invalidate maintenance operations do not
											invalidate clean lines
					ERRATA_720789			TLBIASIDIS and TLBIMVAIS operations can broadcast
											a faulty ASID
					PL310_ERRATA_727915	Background Clean & Invalidate by Way operation
											can cause data corruption
					ERRATA_743622			Faulty hazard checking in the Store Buffer may
											lead to data corruption
					ERRATA_751472			Interrupted ICIALLUIS may prevent completion of
											broadcasted operation
	x				PL310_ERRATA_753970	cache sync operation may be faulty
					ERRATA_754322			possible faulty MMU translations following an ASID
											switch
					ERRATA_754327			no automatic Store Buffer drain
					ERRATA_764369			Data cache line maintenance operation by MVA may
											not succeed
	x		x		PL310_ERRATA_769419	no automatic Store Buffer drain

With Olofs patch, the following errata are enabled by tegra_defconfig:

742230(T2x), 753970(T2x), 769419(T2x + T30)

I have the feeling that at least 764369 also needs to be enabled. From the 
description: ... affecting Cortex-A9 MPCore with two or more processors (all                                                                         
current revisions). I wonder if this includes multi *cores*.

The TRM is not very detailed about this topic. Having this info will likely remove 
some headache for non OEM custumers.
