arm64: docs: Mandate that the I-cache doesn't hold stale kernel text

Browse source

Although we require that the loaded kernel Image has been cleaned to the
PoC, we neglect to spell out the state of the I-cache. Although this
should be reasonably obvious, it doesn't hurt to be explicit.

Require that the I-cache doesn't hold any stale entries for the kernel
Image at boot.
