net: stmmac: ensure that the device has released ownership before reading data

According to Documentation/memory-barriers.txt, we need to use a
dma_rmb() after reading the status/own bit, to ensure that all
descriptor fields are read after reading the own bit.

This way, we ensure that the DMA engine is done with the DMA
descriptor before we read the other descriptor fields, e.g. reading
the tx hardware timestamp (if PTP is enabled).
