This + 16 should be + sizeof(__u16), right?  It's just the
used_event_idx which has been added:

 *	__u16 available[num];
 *	__u16 used_event_idx;
 *
 *	// Padding to the next align boundary.
 *	char pad[];
 *
 * [USED]

This is correct.

And, yes, since align is always 4096, it's currently just a cleanup, but
it makes things much less confusing!

Thanks,
Rusty.
