I'm assuming this is cacheline_aligned, because of some stuff you will
add here in the future for the completion path? (The comment could
mention that this data is read-mostly.) Drivers are likely to already
have a read-mostly (or unused-mostly) section of the rx ring structure.
Would it be possible to define this in a way that would allow people
who carefully lay out their data path structures to save cache space?
