vhost: make sure used idx is seen before log in vhost_add_used_n()

[ Upstream commit 841df922 ]

We miss a write barrier that guarantees used idx is updated and seen
before log. This will let userspace sync and copy used ring before
used idx is update. Fix this by adding a barrier before log_write().
