Is this what you want?
Should I commit that (exporting the symbols) as asdf 2.20.22?

(in-package :asdf)
(defun component-loaded-p (c)
  (and (gethash 'load-op (component-operation-times (find-component c nil))) t))
(defun loaded-systems ()
  (remove-if-not 'component-loaded-p (registered-systems)))
(defun require-system (s)
  (load-system s :force-not (loaded-systems)))
