net: piggy back on the memory barrier in bql when waking queues

Drivers call netdev_tx_completed_queue() right before
netif_txq_maybe_wake(). If BQL is enabled netdev_tx_completed_queue()
should issue a memory barrier, so we can depend on that separating
the stop check from the consumer index update, instead of adding
another barrier in netif_txq_maybe_wake().

This matters more than the barriers on the xmit path, because
the wake condition is almost always true. So we issue the
consumer side barrier often.

Wrap netdev_tx_completed_queue() in a local helper to issue
the barrier even if BQL is disabled. Keep the same semantics
as netdev_tx_completed_queue() (barrier only if bytes != 0)
to make it clear that the barrier is conditional.

Plus since macro gets pkt/byte counts as arguments now -
we can skip waking if there were no packets completed.
