Alexander Duyck 9e1a27ea42 virtio_ring: Update weak barriers to use dma_wmb/rmb
This change makes it so that instead of using smp_wmb/rmb which varies
depending on the kernel configuration we can can use dma_wmb/rmb which for
most architectures should be equal to or slightly more strict than
smp_wmb/rmb.

The advantage to this is that these barriers are available to uniprocessor
builds as well so the performance should improve under such a
configuration.

/*
* Barriers in virtio are tricky. Non-SMP virtio guests can't assume
* they're not on an SMP host system, so they need to assume real
* barriers. Non-SMP virtio hosts could skip the barriers, but does
* anyone care?
*
* For virtio_pci on SMP, we don't need to order with respect to MMIO
* accesses through relaxed memory I/O windows, so smp_mb() et al are
* sufficient.
*
* For using virtio to talk to real devices (eg. other heterogeneous
* CPUs) we do need real barriers. In theory, we could be using both
* kinds of virtio, so it's a runtime decision, and the branch is
* actually quite cheap.
