Arm Neoverse-N2 and the Cortex-A710 cores are affected by a CPU erratum where the TRBE will overwrite the trace buffer in FILL mode. The TRBE doesn't stop (as expected in FILL mode) when it reaches the limit and wraps to the base to continue writing upto 3 cache lines. This will overwrite any trace that was written previously. Add the Neoverse-N2 erratum(#2139208) and Cortex-A710 erratum (#2119858) to the detection logic. This will be used by the TRBE driver in later patches to work around the issue. The detection has been kept with the core arm64 errata framework list to make sure : - We don't duplicate the framework in TRBE driver - The errata detection is advertised like the rest of the CPU errata. Note that the Kconfig entries are not fully active until the TRBE driver implements the work around.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
