ibmvfc: Fix command completion handling
commit f5832fa2f8dc39adcf3ae348d2d6383163235e79 upstream. Commands which are completed by the VIOS are placed on a CRQ in kernel memory for the ibmvfc driver to process. Each CRQ entry is 16 bytes. The ibmvfc driver reads the first 8 bytes to check if the entry is valid, then reads the next 8 bytes to get the handle, which is a pointer the completed command. This fixes an issue seen on Power 7 where the processor reordered the loads from memory, resulting in processing command completion with a stale handle. This could result in command timeouts, and also early completion of commands.
