    xen/arm: gic-v3: Make sure read from ICC_IAR1_EL1 is visible on the 
redistributor
    
    "The effects of reading ICC_IAR0_EL1 and ICC_IAR1_EL1 on the state of a
    returned INTID are not guaranteed to be visible until after the execution
    of a DSB".
    
    Because of the GIC is an external component, a dsb sy is required.
    Without it the sysreg read may not have been made visible on the
    redistributor.
