Subject: [PATCH v3 38/41] xen/io: use virt_xxx barriers

include/xen/interface/io/ring.h uses
full memory barriers to communicate with the other side.

For guests compiled with CONFIG_SMP, smp_wmb and smp_mb
would be sufficient, so mb() and wmb() here are only needed if
a non-SMP guest runs on an SMP host.

Switch to virt_xxx barriers which serve this exact purpose.
