refactor(cpufeat): use alternative encoding for "SB" barrier
The "sb" barrier instruction is a rather new addition to the AArch64
instruction set, so it is not recognised by all toolchains. On top of
that, the GNU assembler denies this instruction, unless a compatible
processor is selected:
asm_macros.S:223: Error: selected processor does not support `sb'
Provide an alternative encoding of the "sb" instruction, by using a
system register write, as this is the group where the barrier
instructions borrow their encoding space from.
This results in the exact same opcode to be generated, and any
disassembler will decode this instruction as "sb".
