We would like to add the support for ARMv9 architecture to use sb instruction instead of isb.
Based on our micro benchmark (patch attached), sb is ~30% faster than isb (ratio=1.710:1) and the change do not seems to introduce any regression on the spin_cpu_spinwait() function (isb_spin=8740725us vs standard_spin=8739722us).
