Subject: [PATCH v4 14/15] scsi: ufs: commit descriptors before setting the doorbell

Add a write memory barrier to make sure descriptors prepared are actually
written to memory before ringing the doorbell. We have also added the
write memory barrier after ringing the doorbell register so that
controller sees the new request immediately.
