The following text is verbatim from the ARM Processor Cortex-A53 MPCore Product Revision r0 Software Developers Errata Notice.

Description

When executing in AArch64 state, a load or store instruction which uses the result of an ADRP instruction as a base register, or which uses a base register written by an instruction immediately after an ADRP to the same register, might access an incorrect address.

Configurations affected

All configurations of Cortex-A53 are affected.

Conditions

There are two instruction sequences which can trigger this erratum, both only in AArch64 state.
