On versions of the Cortex-A9 prior to r3p0, an interrupted ICIALLUIS
operation may prevent the completion of a following broadcasted
operation if the second operation is received by a CPU before the
ICIALLUIS has completed, potentially leading to corrupted entries in
the cache or TLB.

This workaround sets a bit in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
causing CP15 maintenance operations to be uninterruptible.
