The patch below is on top of Matthias' patch series:
arm64: Implement IPI based TLB invalidation
The series is used to enable a workaround for Cavium ThunderX pass 1.x
systems.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: Add workaround for Cavium erratum 26026
STX may return a wrong status value if the store was successful.
This may happen on ThunderX T88 pass 1.x cpus if a broadcast TLBI is
executed on another cpu in parallel to an STX. As a result atomic or
non-blocking implementations can behave incorrectly. Use IPIs that
call local TLBIs on other cpus to avoid this.
Applies to ThunderX T88 pass 1.x cpus.
