Ah, yeah the architecture says for example a CSI is required before + 
after each, but the fine print is that you only need those to separate 
between previous or subsequent accesses that may use those contexts
being switched from/to.

Then there is the question of CSI between the instructions so e.g., you 
don't get the TLB prefetch bug if the mtPIDR could go out of order ahead
of the mtLPIDR, but those instructions are serialized so they wouldn't.

There's possibly a few clarifications coming to the architecture around 
this as well.

I think things are relatively okay but probably need a bit more 
commenting to justify where the isyncs() aren't. It's possible we might 
be able to even remove the isyncs that are there.

Making a like-for-like conversion is a bit tricky because there are
possible context synchronising instructions between them already.

Maybe for the first series, I'll just put an isync between all of them,
and then a later patch can replace some of them with comments.

Yes, these are moved to HVMODE specific code now.

Thanks,
