commit 22e1992
A smp_rmb() has been missed in vhost_vq_avail_empty(), spotted by
Will. Otherwise, it's not ensured the available ring entries pushed
by guest can be observed by vhost in time, leading to stale available
ring entries fetched by vhost in vhost_get_vq_desc(), as reported by
Yihuang Yu on NVidia's grace-hopper (ARM64) platform.

Add the missed smp_rmb() in vhost_vq_avail_empty(). When tx_can_batch()
returns true, it means there's still pending tx buffers. Since it might
read indices, so it still can bypass the smp_rmb() in vhost_get_vq_desc().
Note that it should be safe until vq->avail_idx is changed by commit
275bf96 ("vhost: better detection of available buffers").
