From: Gowrishankar Muthukrishnan <gowrishankar.m at linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Calling rte_smp_wmb macro expands into a compound block, which
would break compiling a else clause following it, if that calling
place has been terminated already with ";", as in below code.
This patch adds { } around this macro to allow compiling else too.
Fixes: git show c9fb3c6289 ("ring: move code in a new header file")
