With existing code in kni_fifo_put, rx_q values are not being updated
before updating fifo_write. While reading rx_q in kni_net_rx_normal,
This is causing the sync issue on other core. So adding a write
barrier to make sure the values being synced before updating fifo_write.
Fixes: 3fc5ca2f6352 ("kni: initial import")
