Michael S. Tsirkin a65961272e virtio_ring: update weak barriers to use virt_xxx
virtio ring uses smp_wmb on SMP and wmb on !SMP,
the reason for the later being that it might be
talking to another kernel on the same SMP machine.

This is exactly what virt_xxx barriers do,
so switch to these instead of homegrown ifdef hacks.

/*
* Barriers in virtio are tricky. Non-SMP virtio guests can't assume
* they're not on an SMP host system, so they need to assume real
* barriers. Non-SMP virtio hosts could skip the barriers, but does
* anyone care?
*
* For virtio_pci on SMP, we don't need to order with respect to MMIO
* accesses through relaxed memory I/O windows, so virt_mb() et al are
* sufficient.
*
* For using virtio to talk to real devices (eg. other heterogeneous
* CPUs) we do need real barriers. In theory, we could be using both
* kinds of virtio, so it's a runtime decision, and the branch is
* actually quite cheap.
