Should this macro #define DEFINE_XEN_FLEX_RING_AND_INTF be below the macro
DEFINE_XEN_FLEX_RING?

As the DEFINE_XEN_FLEX_RING_AND_INTF uses the DEFINE_XEN_FLEX_RING?

Could you put () around ring_size and idx please.

As well for idx here?

Any particular reason you are using an pointer to masked_cons?

And vice versa on the _write_packet function?
