J. Bruce Fields fdef7aa5d4 svcrpc: ensure cache_check caller sees updated entry
Supposes cache_check runs simultaneously with an update on a different
CPU:

	cache_check			task doing update
	^^^^^^^^^^^			^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	1. test for CACHE_VALID		1'. set entry->data
	   & !CACHE_NEGATIVE

	2. use entry->data		2'. set CACHE_VALID

If the two memory writes performed in step 1' and 2' appear misordered
with respect to the reads in step 1 and 2, then the caller could get
stale data at step 2 even though it saw CACHE_VALID set on the cache
entry.

Add memory barriers to prevent this.
