Seems raw_spin_lock_irqsave is used in aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync()
and spinlock could support a protection in multicore system.

Yes, sounds resonable.

aarch64_insn_patch_text() could patch multi instructions to code[] each
time and aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync() could only patch one
instruction each time, so maybe aarch64_insn_patch_text() is better here.
I'll replace other aarch64_insn_patch_text() in this function.
