[PATCH v3 2/7] riscv: Match memory barriers between send_ipi_many and handle_ipi

Without a matching barrier on the write side, the barrier in handle_ipi
does nothing. It was entirely possible for the boot hart to write to addr,
arg0, and arg1 *after* sending the IPI, because there was no barrier on the
sending side.
