Just noticed that this drops the ISB when the speculative AT workaround
is not active.
This alternative is 'backwards' to avoid a double ISB as there is one in
__load_guest_stage2 when the workaround is active. I hope to address
this smell in an upcoming series but, for now, we should at least have
an ISB.
