Summit reports that the BHB backports for v4.9 prevent vulnerable
platforms from booting when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled.
This is because the trampoline code takes a translation fault when
accessing the data page, because the TTBR write hasn't been completed
by an ISB before the access is made.
Upstream has a complex erratum workaround for QCOM_FALKOR_E1003 in
this area, which removes the ISB when the workaround has been applied.
v4.9 lacks this workaround, but should still have the ISB.
Restore the barrier.
Fixes: aee10c2dd013 ("arm64: entry: Add macro for reading symbol addresses from the trampoline")

This only applies to the v4.9 backport, as v4.14 has the QCOM_FALKOR_E1003
workaround.
