blk-mq: fix a memory ordering bug in blk_mq_queue_enter()

Browse Source 
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.
