From: Lijun Pan <ljp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 42557dab78edc8235aba5b441f2eb35f725a0ede ] dma_rmb() barrier is added to load the long term buffer before copying it to socket buffer; and dma_wmb() barrier is added to update the long term buffer before it being accessed by VIOS (virtual i/o server).
