From: Huang Tao <huangtao@rock-chips.com>

On Cortex-A12 (r0p0..r0p1-00lac0-rc11), when a CPU executes a sequence of
two conditional store instructions with opposite condition code and
updating the same register, the system might enter a deadlock if the
second conditional instruction is an UNPREDICTABLE STR or STM
instruction. This workaround setting bit[12] of the Feature Register
prevents the erratum. This bit disables an optimisation applied to a
sequence of 2 instructions that use opposing condition codes.
