[PATCH v2 3/4] kvx: add I-cache and D-cache synchronisation

Before booting, we must make sure the I-cache is synchronized with the
D-cache to execute loaded instructions. In order to do that, add a
function which execute a fence to ensure every memory accesses have
been committed out of processor pipeline to memory and then invalidate
I-cache to reload from memory.
