[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 2/3] net/virtio: add barriers for extra descriptors on Rx split

There should be read barrier between checking VIRTQUEUE_NUSED (reading
the used->idx) and reading these descriptors. It's done for the first
checks at the beginning of these functions but missed while checking
for extra required descriptors.

Fixes: e5f456a98d3c ("net/virtio: support in-order Rx and Tx")
Fixes: 13ce5e7eb94f ("virtio: mergeable buffers")
