net: bridge: use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() compiler barriers for fdb->dst
Annotate the writer side of fdb->dst: - fdb_create() - br_fdb_update() - fdb_add_entry() - br_fdb_external_learn_add() with WRITE_ONCE() and the reader side: - br_fdb_test_addr() - br_fdb_update() - fdb_fill_info() - fdb_add_entry() - fdb_delete_by_addr_and_port() - br_fdb_external_learn_add() - br_switchdev_fdb_notify() with compiler barriers such that the readers do not attempt to reload fdb->dst multiple times, leading to potentially different destination ports when the fdb entry is updated concurrently. This is especially important in read-side sections where fdb->dst is used more than once, but let's convert all accesses for the sake of uniformity.
