virtio: Use global memory barrier macros
The virtio code uses wmb() macros in several places, as required by the SMP-aware virtio protocol. However the wmb() macro is locally defined to be a compiler barrier only. This is probably sufficient on x86 due to its strong storage ordering model, but it certainly isn't on other platforms, such as ppc. In any case, qemu already has some globally defined memory barrier macros in qemu-barrier.h. This patch, therefore converts virtio.c to use those barrier macros. The macros in qemu-barrier.h are also wrong (or at least, safe for x86 only) but this way at least there's only one place to fix them.
