[U-Boot] [PATCH v3] armv8: errata: Implement workaround for Cortex-A53 Erratum 855873

855873: An eviction might overtake a cache clean operation
Workaround: The erratum can be avoided by upgrading cache clean by
address operations to cache clean and invalidate operations. For
Cortex-A53 r0p3 and later release, this can be achieved by setting
CPUACTLR.ENDCCASCI to 1.

This patch is to implement the workaround for this erratum.

Changes in v3:
- Check the major revision of Cortex-A53.

Changes in v2:
- Check the revision of Cortex-A53 and apply the erratum to r0p3 and later release.
- Fix the mistake in the commit description.
