With the introduction of 'cce360b54ce6 ("arm64: capabilities: Filter the

applied.

The result of not applying errata 1003 is that MSM8996 runs into various
RCU stalls and fails to boot most of the times.

Give both 1003 and 1009 a "type" to ensure they are not filtered out in
update_cpu_capabilities().

Oh nasty. Thanks for debugging and fixing this.

This should probably be ARM64_CPUCAP_LOCAL_CPU_ERRATUM instead, but I'll
want Suzuki's ack before I take the change.

Yes, it must be ARM64_CPUCAP_LOCAL_CPU_ERRATUM.

It may be a good idea to stick in a check to make sure that the scope is
set for all the capabilities in a separate patch. e.g,

Otherwise looks good to me.

ERRATA_MIDR_RANGE_LIST sets the type already, so I think this is redundant.
