Cortex A78 AE erratum 2376748 is a Cat B erratum that applies
to revisions <= r0p1. It is still open.
The erratum states, "A PE executing a PLDW or PRFM PST instruction
that lies on a mispredicted branch path might cause a second PE
executing a store exclusive to the same cache line address to fail
continuously."
The erratum is avoided by setting CPUACTLR2_EL1[0] to 1 to force
PLDW/PFRM ST to behave like PLD/PRFM LD and not cause invalidations
to other PE caches. There might be a small performance degradation
to this workaround for certain workloads that share data.

Cortex A78 AE erratum 1941500 is a Cat B erratum that applies
to revisions <= r0p1. It is still open.
This erratum is avoided by by setting CPUECTLR_EL1[8] to 1.
There is a small performance cost (<0.5%) for setting this
bit.

Cortex A78 AE erratum 1951502 is a Cat B erratum that applies to revisions
<= r0p1. It is still open. This erratum is avoided by inserting a DMB ST
before acquire atomic instructions without release semantics through a series
of writes to implementation defined system registers.
