Magnus Karlsson 2c5935f1b2 libbpf: optimize barrier for XDP socket rings
The full memory barrier in the XDP socket rings on the consumer side
between the load of the data and the store of the consumer ring is
there to protect the store from being executed before the load of the
data. If this was allowed to happen, the producer might overwrite the
data field with a new entry before the consumer got the chance to read
it.

On x86, stores are guaranteed not to be reordered with older loads, so
it does not need a full memory barrier here. A compile time barrier
would be enough. This patch introdcues a new primitive in
libbpf_util.h that implements a new barrier type (libbpf_smp_rwmb)
hindering stores to be reordered with older loads. It is then used in
the XDP socket ring access code in libbpf to improve performance.
