Handling ARM_ERRATA_364296 when CONFIG_SMP=y

Hi Catalin,
On commit 145e10e1 (ARM: 7015/1: ARM errata: Possible cache data
corruption with hit-under-miss enabled) you added support for
ARM_ERRATA_364296 option:
+config ARM_ERRATA_364296
+ bool "ARM errata: Possible cache data corruption with
hit-under-miss enabled"
+ depends on CPU_V6 && !SMP
+ help
As this erratum affects mx31/mx35, I would like to enable it, but I am
not allowed to do it because mx31/mx35 share the same config file as
mx6 (imx_v6_v7_defconfig), which has SMP turned on.
What would be the correct approach for applying this erratum?
Is it safe to do "depends on CPU_V6" only or should this erratum be
handled in the bootloader?
Regards,
Fabio Estevam
