While we're here improving virtchnl we can include two minor fixes for the lower level ctrlq flow. This adds a memory barrier to idpf_post_rx_buffs before we update tail on the controlq. We should make sure our writes have had a chance to finish before we tell HW it can touch them. This also removes some defensive programming in idpf_ctrlq_recv. The caller should not be using a num_q_msg value of zero or more than the ring size and it's their responsibility to call functions sanely.
