[PATCH RFC 14/18] staging: vchiq_util: get rid of unneeded memory barriers

[Nicolas Saenz Julienne]

All the memory operations featured in this file modify/access memory
that is only accessed by the CPU. So we can assume that all the memory
barrier handling done by the completion routines is good enough for us.
