blk-mq: fix a memory ordering bug in blk_mq_queue_enter()
blk-mq uses a percpu_counter to keep track of how many usages are in flight. The percpu_counter is drained while freezing to ensure that no usage is left in-flight after freezing is complete. blk_mq_queue_enter/exit() and blk_mq_[un]freeze_queue() implement this per-cpu gating mechanism; unfortunately, it contains a subtle bug - smp_wmb() in blk_mq_queue_enter() doesn't prevent prevent the cpu from fetching @q->bypass_depth before incrementing @q->mq_usage_counter and if freezing happens inbetween the caller can slip through and freezing can be complete while there are active users. Use smp_mb() instead so that bypass_depth and mq_usage_counter modifications and tests are properly interlocked.
