As found by syzkaller, malicious users can set whatever tx_queue_len
on a tun device and eventually crash the kernel.
Lets remove the ALIGN(XXX, SMP_CACHE_BYTES) thing since a small
ring buffer is not fast anyway.
Fixes: 2e0ab8ca83 ("ptr_ring: array based FIFO for pointers")

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
