Workaround for Cortex A76 erratum 1868343
Cortex A76 erratum 1868343 is a Cat B erratum, present in older
revisions of the Cortex A76 processor core. The workaround is to
set a bit in the CPUACTLR_EL1 system register, which delays instruction
fetch after branch misprediction. This workaround will have a small
impact on performance.
This workaround is the same as workarounds for errata 1262606 and
1275112, so all 3 have been combined into one function call.
