While an ISB will ensure any raised IRQs happen on the next
instruction it doesn't cause any to get raised by itself. We can
therefor use DISAS_JUMP for ISB instructions and rely on the
exit_request check at the top of each TB to deal with exiting if
needed.

Better would be gen_goto_tb.  The destination is known, so there's no need to 
go through lookup_and_goto_ptr.  You still get the icount_decr check at the 
start of the linked TB, which is what you're looking for.

Interesting that a64's gen_goto_tb sets is_jmp, but a32 does not...

Hmm the only caller that is not already in the exit path sets it. Maybe
I should push the s->is_jmp to the a32 gen_goto_tb? I can then do the
same in both.

Sounds reasonable.
