rds: Make sure updates to cp_send_gen can be observed
cp->cp_send_gen is treated as a normal variable, although it may be used by different threads. This is fixed by using {READ,WRITE}_ONCE when it is incremented and READ_ONCE when it is read outside the {acquire,release}_in_xmit protection. Normative reference from the Linux-Kernel Memory Model: Loads from and stores to shared (but non-atomic) variables should be protected with the READ_ONCE(), WRITE_ONCE(), and ACCESS_ONCE(). Clause 5.1.2.4/25 in the C standard is also relevant.
