[PATCH 1/4] RDMA/bnxt_re: Add memory barriers when processing CQ/EQ entries

[Selvin Xavier <selvin.xavier-dY08KVG/lbpWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>]

From: Somnath Kotur <somnath.kotur-dY08KVG/lbpWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>

The code determines if the next ring entry is valid before proceeding
further to read the rest of the entry. The CPU can re-order and read
the rest of the entry first, possibly reading a stale entry, if DMA
of a new entry happens right after reading it.
