netfilter: x_tables: fix ordering of jumpstack allocation and table update

During kernel stability testing on an SMP ARMv7 system, Yalin Wang
reported the following panic from the netfilter code:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

This comes about because CPU1 is executing xt_replace_table in response
to a setsockopt syscall, resulting in:

	ret = xt_jumpstack_alloc(newinfo);
		--> newinfo->jumpstack = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);

	[...]

	table->private = newinfo;
	newinfo->initial_entries = private->initial_entries;

Meanwhile, CPU0 is handling the network receive path and ends up in
ipt_do_table, resulting in:

	private = table->private;

	[...]

	jumpstack  = (struct ipt_entry **)private->jumpstack[cpu];

On weakly ordered memory architectures, the writes to table->private
and newinfo->jumpstack from CPU1 can be observed out of order by CPU0.
Furthermore, on architectures which don't respect ordering of address
dependencies (i.e. Alpha), the reads from CPU0 can also be re-ordered.

This patch adds an smp_wmb() before the assignment to table->private
(which is essentially publishing newinfo) to ensure that all writes to
newinfo will be observed before plugging it into the table structure.
A dependent-read barrier is also added on the consumer sides, to ensure
the same ordering requirements are also respected there.
