I don't like this patch at all.

The original assembly sequence was carefully written in a single segment 
because it is important that the compiler does not attempt to schedule 
anything in the middle.  Some definitions of isb() and dsb() need a 
temporary register which needs to be allocated and initialized and who 
knows what the compiler might do (such as spilling to the stack which 
might be fatal here).

Instead, you should insert ".arch armv7-a" in the assembly sequence to 
tell the assembler the isb and dsb instructions are going to be executed 
on an ARMv7 capable CPU.
