Fix a misplaced barrier in call_decode. The struct rpc_rqst is modified
as follows by xprt_complete_rqst:

req->rq_private_buf.len = copied;
/* Ensure all writes are done before we update */
/* req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd */
smp_wmb();
req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd = copied;

And currently read as follows by call_decode:

smp_rmb(); // misplaced
if (!req->rq_reply_bytes_recvd)
   goto out;
req->rq_rcv_buf.len = req->rq_private_buf.len;

This patch places the smp_rmb after the if to ensure that
rq_reply_bytes_recvd and rq_private_buf.len are read in order.

Fixes: 9ba828861c56a ("SUNRPC: Don't try to parse incomplete RPC messages")
