[AArch64] Workaround for cortex-a53 erratum 843419
Some early revisions of the Cortex-A53 have an erratum (843419).
The details of the erratum are quite complex and involve dynamic
conditions. For the purposes of the workaround we have simplified
the static conditions to an ADRP in the last two instructions of a
4KByte page, followed within four instructions by a load/store dependent
on the ADRP.
This patch adds support to conservatively scan for and workaround the erratum.
There are two different workaround strategies used. The first is to rewrite
ADRP instructions which form part of an erratum sequence with an ADR instruction.
In situations where the ADR provides insufficient offset the dependent
load or store instruction from the sequence is moved to a stub section
and branches are inserted from the original sequence to the relocated
instruction and back again.
Stub section sizes are rounded up to a multiple of 4096 in order to ensure
that the act of inserting work around stubs does not create more errata sequences.
Workaround stubs are always inserted into the stub section associated
with the input section containing the erratum sequence. This ensures that the
fully relocated form of the veneered load store instruction is available at the
point in time when the stub section is written.
