We received two reports of BUG_ON in bnad_txcmpl_process() where hw_consumer_index appeared to be ahead of producer_index. Out of order write/read of these variables could explain these reports. bnad_start_xmit(), as a producer of tx descriptors, has a few memory barriers sprinkled around writes to producer_index and the device's doorbell but they're not paired with anything in bnad_txcmpl_process(), a consumer. Since we are synchronizing with a device, we must use mandatory barriers, not smp_*. Also, I didn't see the purpose of the last smp_mb() in bnad_start_xmit().
