Subject: [PATCH net 2/7] net: hns3: add barrier in vf mailbox reply process

From: Yonglong Liu <liuyonglong@...wei.com>

In hclgevf_mbx_handler() and hclgevf_get_mbx_resp() functions,
there is a typical store-store and load-load scenario between
received_resp and additional_info. This patch adds barrier
to fix the problem.

Fixes: 4671042f1ef0 ("net: hns3: add match_id to check mailbox response from PF to VF")
