KVM: add missing memory barrier in kvm_{make,check}_request
kvm_make_request and kvm_check_request imply a producer-consumer relationship; add implicit memory barriers to them. There was indeed already a place that was adding an explicit smp_mb() to order between kvm_check_request and the processing of the request. That memory barrier can be removed (as an added benefit, kvm_check_request can use smp_mb__after_atomic which is free on x86). Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
