Thanks, and sorry for not catching this during review.

                                      ^ void * would seem more natural IMO.

Also if you use void * you don't need the extra (struct
blkfront_ring_info *) cast I think?

I however think this macro is kind of weird, since it's just doing an
addition. I would rather have that calculation in get_rinfo and code
for_each_rinfo on top of that.

I agree this might be a question of taste, so I'm not going to insist
but that would reduce the number of helpers from 3 to 2.

I think the above is missing proper parentheses around macro
parameters.

inline attribute might be appropriate here.

Thanks, Roger.
