[PATCH 1/2] drm/amdgpu: drop volatile from ring buffer

[Christian König]

Volatile only prevents the compiler from re-ordering reads and writes.
Since we always only modify the ring buffer from one CPU thread and have
an explicit barrier before signaling the HW this should have no effect at
all and just prevents compiler optimisations.
