I think you're underselling it. This codes does not compute the address
of the ring, it reads the ring pointer from an array. The description
reads like it was doing:

ring = &self->ring[i];

which would indeed be valid. What the code actually does is not.

Please repost with the commit message improved and a Fixes: tag(s)
pointing to commit(s) where the buggy code was introduced.
