Subject: [PATCH 3.2 88/94] drivers: hv: additional switch to use mb()
 instead of smp_mb()

3.2.58-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Qiang Huang <h.huangqiang@...wei.com>

commit e4af376d04b0(drivers: hv: switch to use mb() instead of smp_mb()),
the adjustment mistakenly dropped the change in hv_ringbuffer_read,
so add it.
