[PATCH 2/3] arm64: Add missing ISB after invalidating TLB in __primary_switch

Although there has been a bit of back and forth on the subject,
it appears that invalidating TLBs requires an ISB instruction
after the TLBI/DSB sequence, as documented in d0b7a302d58a
("Revert "arm64: Remove unnecessary ISBs from set_{pte,pmd,pud}"").

Add the missing ISB in __primary_switch, just in case.
