Hi Oleksandr,

these macros are the generic versions of what pvcalls and xen-9pfs need,
and these protocols use memory copies. I cannot introduce memory sharing
interfaces as part of this patch, because they wouldn't comply to
pvcalls or xen-9pfs and I don't have another test case for them.
But if you had a patch to introduce them in ring.h, I would be happy to
help you review it.

I thought I already did: you can read/write fixed sized packets using
the two read/write_packet functions.
