net: ravb: Ensure memory write completes before ringing TX doorbell

Browse Source 
Add a final dma_wmb() barrier before triggering the transmit request
(TCCR_TSRQ) to ensure all descriptor and buffer writes are visible to
the DMA engine.

According to the hardware manual, a read-back operation is required
before writing to the doorbell register to guarantee completion of
previous writes. Instead of performing a dummy read, a dma_wmb() is
used to both enforce the same ordering semantics on the CPU side and
also to ensure completion of writes.
