arm64: issue ISB after updating system registers
ARM Architecture reference manual clearly states that PE pipeline
should be flushed after changes to some system registers. Refer to
paragraph "B2.3.5 Memory Barriers" at page B2-92 of "Arm Architecture
Reference Manual ARMv8 for ARMv8-A Architecture Profile" (ARM DDI
0487B.a).
Failing to issue instruction synchronization barrier can lead to
spurious errors, like synchronous exception when accessing FPU
registers. This is very prominent on CPUs with long instruction
pipeline, like ARM Cortex A72.
This change fixes the following U-Boot panic:
"Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x1fe00000

While executing instruction
str q0, [sp, #112]
in vsnprintf() prologue. This panic was observed only on Cortex A72 so
far.
This patch places ISBs on other strategic places as well.
Also, this probably is the right fix for the issue workarounded in the
commit 45f41c134baf ("ARM: uniphier: add weird workaround code for LD20")
