ARM: 7062/1: cache: detect PIPT I-cache using CTR
The Cache Type Register L1Ip field identifies I-caches with a PIPT policy using the encoding 11b. This patch extends the cache policy parsing to identify PIPT I-caches correctly and prevent them from being treated as VIPT aliasing in cases where they are sufficiently large.
