From: Catherine Sullivan <csully@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f81781835f0adfae8d701545386030d223efcd6f ] As currently written, if the driver checks for more work (via gve_tx_poll or gve_rx_poll) before the device posts work and the irq doorbell is not unmasked (via iowrite32be(GVE_IRQ_ACK | GVE_IRQ_EVENT, ...)) before the device attempts to raise an interrupt, an interrupt is lost and this could potentially lead to the traffic being completely halted. For example, if a tx queue has already been stopped, the driver won't get the chance to complete work and egress will be halted. We need a full memory barrier in the poll routine to ensure that the irq doorbell is unmasked before the driver checks for more work.
