Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 7/7] net: piggy back on the memory barrier in bql when waking queues

Drivers call netdev_tx_completed_queue() right before
netif_txq_maybe_wake(). If BQL is enabled netdev_tx_completed_queue()
should issue a memory barrier, so we can depend on that separating
the stop check from the consumer index update, instead of adding
another barrier in netif_txq_maybe_wake().

This matters more than the barriers on the xmit path, because
the wake condition is almost always true. So we issue the
consumer side barrier often.

Plus since macro gets pkt/byte counts as arguments now -
we can skip waking if there were no packets completed.
