Subject: vhost: make sure used idx is seen before log in vhost_add_used_n()
Git-commit: 841df922417eb82c835e93d4b93eb6a68c99d599
Patch-mainline: v4.20
References: networking-stable-19_01_04
We miss a write barrier that guarantees used idx is updated and seen
before log. This will let userspace sync and copy used ring before
used idx is update. Fix this by adding a barrier before log_write().
Fixes: 8dd014adfea6f ("vhost-net: mergeable buffers support")
