binding->dev is protected on the write-side in
mp_dmabuf_devmem_uninstall() against concurrent writes, but due to the
concurrent bare reads in net_devmem_get_binding() and
validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() it should be wrapped in a
READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE pair to make sure no compiler optimizations play
with the underlying register in unforeseen ways.
Doesn't present a critical bug because the known compiler optimizations
don't result in bad behavior. There is no tearing on u64, and load
omissions/invented loads would only break if additional binding->dev
references were inlined together (they aren't right now).
This just more strictly follows the linux memory model (i.e.,
"Lock-Protected Writes With Lockless Reads" in
tools/memory-model/Documentation/access-marking.txt).
