From: Somnath Kotur <somnath.kotur@xxxxxxxxxxxx> The code determines if the next ring entry is valid before proceeding further to read the rest of the entry. The CPU can re-order and read the rest of the entry first, possibly reading a stale entry, if DMA of a new entry happens right after reading it.
