Hi all,
This is the 4.8 backport of the configure option
--enable-fix-cortex-a53-835769 to enable the workaround
for the Cortex-A53 erratum 835769 by default. The patch is very similar
to the trunk version, just some
differences in the placement of the relevant sections.
Bootstrapped and tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu.
Ok for the 4.8 branch together with the -mfix-cortex-a53-835769 option
backport?
Thanks,
Kyrill

* config.gcc (aarch64*-*-*): Define TARGET_FIX_ERR_A53_835769_DEFAULT
if asked.
* configure.ac: Add --enable-fix-cortex-a53-835769 option.
* configure: Regenerate.
* config/aarch64/aarch64.c (aarch64_override_options): Handle
TARGET_FIX_ERR_A53_835769_DEFAULT.
* config/aarch64/aarch64.opt (mfix-cortex-a53-835769): Set Init value
to 2.
* doc/install.texi: Document --enable-fix-cortex-a53-835769 option.
