arm64: head.S: ensure idmap_t0sz is visible

Browse Source 
We write idmap_t0sz with SCTLR_EL1.{C,M} clear, but we only have the
guarnatee that the kernel Image is clean, not invalid in the caches, and
therefore we might read a stale value once the MMU is enabled.

This patch ensures we invalidate the corresponding cacheline after the
write as we do for all other data written before we set SCTLR_EL1.{C.M},
guaranteeing that the value will be visible later. We rely on the DSBs
in __create_page_tables to complete the maintenance.
