Vincenzo Maffione f79ba6d75b netmap: improvements to the netmap kloop (CSB mode)
Changelist:
    - Add the proper memory barriers in the kloop ring processing
      functions.
    - Fix memory barriers usage in the user helpers (nm_sync_kloop_appl_write,
      nm_sync_kloop_appl_read).
    - Fix nm_kr_txempty() helper to look at rhead rather than rcur. This
      is important since the kloop can read a value of rcur which is ahead
      of the value of rhead (see explanation in nm_sync_kloop_appl_write)
    - Remove obsolete ptnetmap_guest_write_kring_csb() and
      ptnet_guest_read_kring_csb(), and update if_ptnet(4) to use those.
    - Prepare in advance the arguments for netmap_sync_kloop_[tr]x_ring(),
      to make the kloop faster.
    - Provide kernel and user implementation for nm_ldld_barrier() and
      nm_ldst_barrier()
