Same arguments below about head apply to tail here. Also, there is no 
#else check on ctb->head?

As per comment in other thread, the check on head here is redundant 
because you have already hit a BUG_ON(ctb->head > size) followed by 
CT_ERROR(ctb->head != desc->head). Therefore, you can't get here if 
'desc->head > size'.
