ARM: 6416/1: errata: faulty hazard checking in the Store Buffer may lead to data corruption

Browse Source 
On the r2p0, r2p1 and r2p2 versions of the Cortex-A9, data corruption
can occur under very rare conditions due to a store buffer optimisation.

This workaround sets a bit in the diagnostic register of the Cortex-A9,
disabling the optimisation and preventing the problem from occurring.

help
This option enables the workaround for the 743622 Cortex-A9
(r2p0..r2p2) erratum. Under very rare conditions, a faulty
optimisation in the Cortex-A9 Store Buffer may lead to data
corruption. This workaround sets a specific bit in the diagnostic
register of the Cortex-A9 which disables the Store Buffer
optimisation, preventing the defect from occurring. This has no
visible impact on the overall performance or power consumption of the
processor.
