[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 2/2] net/i40e: remove compiler barrier for aarch64

[Gavin Hu <gavin.hu@arm.com>]

As packet length extraction code was simplified,the ordering
was not necessary any more.[1]

2% performance gain was measured on Marvell ThunderX2.
4.3% performance gain was measure on Ampere eMAG80
