Yongseok Koh fb870be5a8 net/mlx5: fix Tx doorbell memory barrier
Configuring UAR as IO-mapped makes maximum throughput decline by
noticeable amount. If UAR is configured as write-combining register,
a write memory barrier is needed on ringing a doorbell.

rte_wmb() is mostly effective when the size of a burst is comparatively
small. Revert the register back to write-combining and enforce a write
memory barrier instead, except for vectorized Tx burst routines.
Application can change it by setting MLX5_SHUT_UP_BF under its own
necessity.
