From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang at unisoc.com>
set_pstate_pan failure is observed in an ARM64 system occasionaly on a reboot
test, which can be work around by a msleep on the sw context. We assume
suspicious on disorder of previous instr of disabling SW_PAN and add an isb here.
PS:
The bootup test failed with a invalid TTBR1_EL1 that equals 0x34000000, which is
alike racing between on chip PAN and SW_PAN.
