[PATCH v3 6/7] riscv: add a data fence for CMODX in the kernel mode

[Andy Chiu <andybnac@gmail.com>]

RISC-V spec explicitly calls out that a local fence.i is not enough for
the code modification to be visble from a remote hart. In fact, it
states:

To make a store to instruction memory visible to all RISC-V harts, the
writing hart also has to execute a data FENCE before requesting that all
remote RISC-V harts execute a FENCE.I.

Thus, add a fence here to order data writes before making the IPI.
