Okay, so we have this errata in proc-v7.S, but only for p0..p2.  If
it's also p7 and p9, then it shows that the errata in the kernel aren't
being actively maintained, and brings into question their worth.

Plus, of course, we don't want platforms re-implementing the errata
in their own code if we're already implementing it somewhere in the
kernel.  So, that's something which needs to be thought about.

That's something that needs considering along side the whole 'what
to do about errata when running in non-secure mode' problem which
OMAP suffers from.
