The __qed_spq_block() function expects an smp_read_barrier_depends()
to order a prior READ_ONCE() against a later load that does not depend
on the prior READ_ONCE(), an expectation that can fail to be met.
This commit therefore replaces the READ_ONCE() with smp_load_acquire()
and removes the smp_read_barrier_depends().
