ARM: proc-v7: avoid errata 430973 workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs
Avoid the errata 430973 workaround for non-Cortex A8 CPUs. Having this workaround enabled introduces an additional branch target buffer flush into the context switching path, something we wish to avoid. To allow this errata to be enabled in multiplatform kernels while reducing its impact, rearrange the Cortex-A8 CPU support to avoid impacting on other Version 7 CPUs.
