The Soundwire master controllers might want to check for bus->md initialization to avoid race between early interrupt and finish of sdw_bus_master_add()/sdw_master_device_add(). Such early interrupt can happen if Soundwire devices are not powered off during their probe. Add a store release barrier, so the Soundwire controllers can safely check it in concurrent (e.g. in interrupt) way.
