pvclock: Add CPU barriers to get correct version value
commit 749d088b8e7f4b9826ede02b9a043e417fa84aa1 upstream.
Protocol for the "version" fields is: hypervisor raises it (making it
uneven) before it starts updating the fields and raises it again (making
it even) when it is done. Thus the guest can make sure the time values
it got are consistent by checking the version before and after reading
them.
Add CPU barries after getting version value just like what function
vread_pvclock does, because all of callees in this function is inline.
