ARM: implement support for read-mostly sections
As our SMP implementation uses MESI protocols. Grouping together data
which is mostly only read together means that we avoid unnecessary
cache line bouncing when this code shares a cache line with other data.
In other words, cache lines associated with read-mostly data are
expected to spend most of their time in shared state.
