xenbus: req->body should be updated before req->state
[ Upstream commit
1b6a51e86cce38cf4d48ce9c242120283ae2f603 ]
The req->body should be updated before req->state is updated and the
order should be guaranteed by a barrier.
Otherwise, read_reply() might return req->body = NULL.
Below is sample callstack when the issue is reproduced on purpose by
reordering the updates of req->body and req->state and adding delay in
code between updates of req->state and req->body.

The virt_rmb() is added in the 'true' path of test_reply(). The "while"
is changed to "do while" so that test_reply() is used as a read memory
barrier.
