Data cache consistency is mainly ensured by hardware in riscv, and there is no 
implementation of flushing data cache in kernel. Before wfi(),add an memory 
barrier operation - mb(). Is this feasible? 

  //arch/riscv/include/asm/barrier.h

  17 #define RISCV_FENCE(p, s) \
  18         __asm__ __volatile__ ("fence " #p "," #s : : : "memory")
  19 
  20 /* These barriers need to enforce ordering on both devices or memory. */                                                                                                            
  21 #define mb()            RISCV_FENCE(iorw,iorw) 


After modification, the codes is as follows.

I'll fix it. Thank you!
