+ depends on CPU_V7
+ help
+ This option enables the workaround for the 775420 Cortex-A9 (r2p2,
+ r2p6,r2p8,r2p10,r3p0) erratum. In case a date cache maintenance
+ operation aborts with MMU exception, it might cause the processor
+ deadlock. This workaround puts DSB before executing ISB at the
+ beginning of the abort exception handler.
