ibmvnic: Ensure that SCRQ entry reads are correctly ordered
Ensure that received Subordinate Command-Response Queue (SCRQ) entries are properly read in order by the driver. These queues are used in the ibmvnic device to process RX buffer and TX completion descriptors. dma_rmb barriers have been added after checking for a pending descriptor to ensure the correct descriptor entry is checked and after reading the SCRQ descriptor to ensure the entire descriptor is read before processing.
