fix(cpus): workaround for Cortex-A78 erratum 2779479
Cortex-A78 erratum 2779479 is a Cat B erratum that applies to
all revisions <= r1p2 and is still open.
The workaround is to set the CPUACTLR3_EL1[47] bit to 1. Setting this
bit might have a small impact on power and negligible impact
on performance.
