[PATCH v4 6/7] xen/arm32: Invalidate icache on guest exist for Cortex-A15

[Julien Grall <julien.grall@linaro.org>]

In order to avoid aliasing attacks against the branch predictor on
Cortex A-15, let's invalidate the BTB on guest exit, which can only be
done by invalidating the icache (with ACTLR[0] being set).

We use the same hack as for A12/A17 to perform the vector decoding.

This is based on Linux patch from the kpti branch in [1].
