This adds a code for turning on chicken bit 11, which appears to avoid
a potential CPU deadlock that could occur.  The exact set of
instruction needed to trigger this errata is not totaly known but we
have a high level of confidence that the problem is fixed by setting
chicken bit 11.

All details are in http://crbug.com/711784

This erratum has no known number and thus I have tagged it CR711784
(after the Chrome OS bug number).  I have created separate A12 / A17
configs to match how the rest of the A12 / A17 errata is handled.

The written-up workarounds for 85727[12] do actually say to set both 
bits 10 and 11 of the diagnostic register, so you could probably just 
fold this into the first patch and not have to worry about what to call it.

Robin.

Thanks!  I was unable to find any official docs here and my past
contacts with ARM about this matter have been silent.  All I had was a
preliminary errata description and it only included bit 10.

I'll spin a v2 with them both together then.
