* The nop instructions allow us to insert one or more instructions to flush the

+ * powerpc relies on return from interrupt/syscall being context synchronising
+ * (which hrfid, rfid, and rfscv are) to support ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE
+ * without additional synchronisation instructions.
+ *
+ * soft-masked interrupt replay does not include a context-synchronising rfid,
+ * but those always return to kernel, the sync is only required when returning
