[PATCH 0/2][for 4.14] Add work-around for Falkor erratum E1041

These two patches (back-ported from 4.15) implement a work-around for a
rare but serious erratum in Qualcomm Datacenter Technologies Falkor
cores.

One small merge conflict in arch/arm64/Kconfig was resolved when
back-porting patch #2.

P.S. I couldn't find any good examples of submitting a back-ported
patch with resolved merge conflicts to stable at vger.kernel.org, so I
hope I'm not forgetting anything.
