xen/io/ring.h: new macro to detect whether there are too many requests on the ring
commit 8d9256906a97c24e97e016482b9be06ea2532b05 upstream. Backends may need to protect themselves against an insane number of produced requests stored by a frontend, in case they iterate over requests until reaching the req_prod value. There can't be more requests on the ring than the difference between produced requests and produced (but possibly not yet published) responses. This is a more strict alternative to a patch previously posted by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>.
