Subject[PATCH 3/3] ARM: Work around faulty ISAR0 register in some Krait CPUs
Date
Some early versions of the Krait CPU design incorrectly indicate
that they only support the UDIV and SDIV instructions in Thumb
mode when they actually support them in ARM and Thumb mode. It
seems that these CPUs follow the DDI0406B ARM ARM which has two
possible values for the divide instructions field, instead of the
DDI0406C document which has three possible values.

Work around this problem by checking the MIDR against Krait CPUs
with this faulty ISAR0 register and force the detection code
to indicate support in both modes.
