Address edge case for stale PSCI CPU data in cache
There is a theoretical edge case during CPU_ON where the cache may contain stale data for the target CPU data - this can occur under the following conditions: - the target CPU is in another cluster from the current - the target CPU was the last CPU to shutdown on its cluster - the cluster was removed from coherency as part of the CPU shutdown In this case the cache maintenace that was performed as part of the target CPUs shutdown was not seen by the current CPU's cluster. And so the cache may contain stale data for the target CPU. This patch adds a cache maintenance operation (flush) for the cache-line containing the target CPU data - this ensures that the target CPU data is read from main memory.
