Add memory barrier, optimal interrupt on-off

Disabling an ISR on ARM has 3 instructions of latency. A Memory barrier is REQUIRED to ensure proper and predictable disabling. Memory barriers are expensive, so avoid disabling if already disabled (See https://mcuoneclipse.com/2015/10/16/nvic-disabling-interrupts-on-arm-cortex-m-and-the-need-for-a-memory-barrier-instruction/)
