selftests/powerpc: Fix pkey access right updates
The Power ISA mandates that all writes to the Authority Mask Register (AMR) must always be preceded as well as succeeded by a context synchronizing instruction. This makes sure that the tests follow this requirement when attempting to update a pkey's access rights.
