[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 15/18] drm/i915/guc: Ensure H2G buffer updates visible before tail update

Ensure H2G buffer updates are visible before descriptor tail updates by
inserting a barrier between the H2G buffer update and the tail. The
barrier is simple wmb() for SMEM and is register write for LMEM. This is
needed if more than 1 H2G can be inflight at once.
