ptr_ring: add ptr_ring_unconsume
Applications that consume a batch of entries in one go can benefit from ability to return some of them back into the ring. Add an API for that - assuming there's space. If there's no space naturally can't do this and have to drop entries, but this implies ring is full so we'd likely drop some anyway. Signed-off-by: Michael S.
