[PATCH net-next 1/4] eth: mpnic: use WRITE_ONCE() for BDQ head and tail updates

Convert writes to BDQ ring head and tail in the NAPI path to
WRITE_ONCE(), so that a buffer NAPI depletion check task later in the
series can READ_ONCE() those fields from a workqueue outside of NAPI.
The remaining writers in mpnic_enable_bdq() and mpnic_clean_bdq() run
with NAPI disabled and the instance lock, so don't bother converting
them. The NAPI depletion check later in the series will run under the
instance lock.
