The commit 38fd94b0275c 'arm64: Work around Falkor erratum 1003' has

value of the register x1 which contains 'struct mm_struct *' should
be preserved inside macro pre_ttbr0_update_workaround.
The subject line seems a bit vague and alarmist to me. In my opinion, this
is more descriptive:
arm64: qcom: pre_ttbr0_update_workaround should not clobber register x1
