I have a bit mixed feelings with this patch as I have tripped
around here myself recently.

I think we should just drop this patch and use:
ret = intel_ring_begin(ring, 3 * <amount>) on the subsequent
patches that modify the amount.

This way the intel_ring_begin will always be the one that
shows in a diff. And raises alarm if it doesnt. We don't want
this to be too transparent and looking too easy for the next reader.
As the reviewer is the only and last line of defense ensuring
symmetry between intel_ring_begin and amount of emits.
