Subject: [PATCH 3/4] arm64: compat: Workaround Neoverse-N1 #1542419 for compat user-space

From: James Morse <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 2 Oct 2019 10:49:34 +0100

Compat user-space is unable to perform ICIMVAU instructions from
user-space. Instead it uses a compat-syscall. Add the workaround for
Neoverse-N1 #1542419 to this code path.
