Cortex-A510 erratum 2169012 is a Cat B erratum that applies to revisions r0p0, r0p1, r0p2, r0p3 and r1p0, and is fixed in r1p1.
This erratum has an identical workaround to 1922240 and resolves a similar issue, but that erratum only applies to r0p0 which is not used in any production hardware, so it has been removed.
This workaround has a negligible performance impact.

refactor(psci): absorb psci_power_down_wfi() into common code
The AArch64 and AArch32 variants are not that different so there is no need for them to be in assembly. They should also not be called from non-PSCI code as PSCI is smart enough to handle this after platform hooks. So absorb the functions into common code.
This allows for a tiny bit of optimisation: there will be no branch (that can be missed or non-cached) to a non-inlineable function. Then in the terminal case we can call wfi() directly with the application of the erratum before the loop. And finally in the wakeup case, we don't have to explicitly clear the errata as that will happen automatically on the second call of prepare_cpu_pwr_dwn().
The A510 erratum requires a tsb csync before the dsb+wfi combo to turn the core off. We can do this a little bit earlier in the cpu hook and relieve common code from the responsibility. EL3 is always a prohibited region so the buffer will stay empty.

Cortex-A510 erratum 2971420 applies to revisions r0p1, r0p2, r0p3, r1p0, r1p1, r1p2 and r1p3, and is still open.
Under some conditions, data might be corrupted if Trace Buffer Extension (TRBE) is enabled. The workaround is to disable trace collection via TRBE by programming MDCR_EL3.NSTB[1] to the opposite value of SCR_EL3.NS on a security state switch. Since we only enable TRBE for non-secure world, the workaround is to disable TRBE by setting the NSTB field to 00 so accesses are trapped to EL3 and secure state owns the buffer.

perf(mpmm): greatly simplify MPMM enablement
MPMM is a core-specific microarchitectural feature. It has been present in every Arm core since the Cortex-A510 and has been implemented in exactly the same way. Despite that, it is enabled more like an architectural feature with a top level enable flag. This utilised the identical implementation.
This duality has left MPMM in an awkward place, where its enablement should be generic, like an architectural feature, but since it is not, it should also be core-specific if it ever changes. One choice to do this has been through the device tree.
This has worked just fine so far, however, recent implementations expose a weakness in that this is rather slow - the device tree has to be read, there's a long call stack of functions with many branches, and system registers are read. In the hot path of PSCI CPU powerdown, this has a significant and measurable impact. Besides it being a rather large amount of code that is difficult to understand.
Since MPMM is a microarchitectural feature, its correct placement is in the reset function. The essence of the current enablement is to write CPUPPMCR_EL3.MPMM_EN if CPUPPMCR_EL3.MPMMPINCTL == 0. Replacing the C enablement with an assembly macro in each CPU's reset function achieves the same effect with just a single close branch and a grand total of 6 instructions (versus the old 2 branches and 32 instructions).
Having done this, the device tree entry becomes redundant. Should a core that doesn't support MPMM arise, this can cleanly be handled in the reset function. As such, the whole ENABLE_MPMM_FCONF and platform hooks mechanisms become obsolete and are removed.

perf(cpus): make reset errata do fewer branches
Errata application is painful for performance. For a start, it's done when the core has just come out of reset, which means branch predictors and caches will be empty so a branch to a workaround function must be fetched from memory and that round trip is very slow. Then it also runs with the I-cache off, which means that the loop to iterate over the workarounds must also be fetched from memory on each iteration.
We can remove both branches. First, we can simply apply every erratum directly instead of defining a workaround function and jumping to it. Currently, no errata that need to be applied at both reset and runtime, with the same workaround function, exist. If the need arose in future, this should be achievable with a reset + runtime wrapper combo.
Then, we can construct a function that applies each erratum linearly instead of looping over the list. If this function is part of the reset function, then the only "far" branches at reset will be for the checker functions. Importantly, this mitigates the slowdown even when an erratum is disabled.
The result is ~50% speedup on N1SDP and ~20% on AArch64 Juno on wakeup from PSCI calls that end in powerdown. This is roughly back to the baseline of v2.9, before the errata framework regressed on performance (or a little better). It is important to note that there are other slowdowns since then that remain unknown.

refactor(cpus): register DSU errata with the errata framework's wrappers
The existing DSU errata workarounds hijack the errata framework's inner workings to register with it. However, that is undesirable as any change to the framework may end up missing these workarounds. So convert the checks and workarounds to macros and have them included with the standard wrappers.
The only problem with this is the is_scu_present_in_dsu weak function. Fortunately, it is only needed for 2 of the errata and only on 3 cores. So drop it, assuming the default behaviour and have the callers handle the exception.

It is important to note that the errata workaround sequences remain unchanged and preserve their git blame.
Note: cortex_a510.S is applicable and being used only by arm_fpga platform.
However, to test the ported changes, below steps were carried out on the fvp and the obtained results has been verified.
Testing was conducted by: * Building for release with all errata flags enabled and running script in change 19136 to compare output of objdump for each errata.
* Testing via script was not complete, as it directed to verify the check and the workaround functions of few erratas manually.
* Manual comparison of disassembly of converted functions with non- converted functions
aarch64-none-elf-objdump -D <trusted-firmware-a with conversion>/build/../release/bl31/bl31.elf vs aarch64-none-elf-objdump -D <trusted-firmware-a clean repo>/build/fvp/release/bl31/bl31.elf
* Manual comparison of disassembly of both both files(bl31.elf) ensured, the ported changes were identical and hence verified.
* Build for release with all errata flags enabled and run default tftf tests.
