Simon Schippers fba362c17d ptr_ring: move free-space check into separate helper ...

This patch moves the check for available free space for a new entry into
a separate function. Existing callers that only check for a non-zero
return value are unaffected; __ptr_ring_produce() now returns -EINVAL
for a zero-size ring and -ENOSPC when full, whereas before both cases
returned -ENOSPC. The new helper allows callers to determine in advance
whether subsequent __ptr_ring_produce() calls will succeed. This
information can, for example, be used to temporarily stop producing until
__ptr_ring_check_produce() indicates that space is available again.
