[PATCH] KVM: dirty ring: add missing memory barrier


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [PATCH] KVM: dirty ring: add missing memory barrier
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 13:00:29 +0200

The KVM_DIRTY_GFN_F_DIRTY flag ensures that the entry is valid.  If
the read of the fields are not ordered after the read of the flag,
QEMU might see stale values.
