SRU Justification:
[Impact]
This commit is ported from Jammy repo (commit eeeee955aefe).
This change is needed to avoid potential race of accessing the 'vq' pointer
[Fix]
The fix adds memory barrier for the is_ready flag and the 'vq' pointer access in mlxbf_tmfifo_virtio_find_vqs(), so updated in vq will be visible before accessing this pointer.
[Test Case]
Same functionality and testing as on BlueField-1/2/3. No functionality change.
[Regression Potential]
Same behavior from user perspective
