Hi Anshuman

TRBE implementations affected by Arm erratum #2064142 might fail to write

conditions after TRBE has been disabled, writes into certain TRBE registers
TRBLIMITR_EL1, TRBPTR_EL1, TRBBASER_EL1, TRBSR_EL1 and TRBTRG_EL1 will be
ignored and not be effected.

Work around this problem in the TRBE driver by executing TSB CSYNC and DSB
just after the trace collection has stopped and before performing a system
register write to one of the affected registers. This adds a new cpu errata
in arm64 errata framework and also updates TRBE driver as required.

I think it may be a good idea to split the patch into
two parts :

- arm64 kernel part. (cpucap defintions and detection)
- trbe driver part

So that it is easier to merge these series upstream to
avoid conflicts.

Either ways, the patch looks good to me.
