Subject: [PATCH net-next] ptr_ring: make __ptr_ring_empty() checking more reliable

Currently r->queue[] is cleared after r->consumer_head is moved
forward, which makes the __ptr_ring_empty() checking called in
page_pool_refill_alloc_cache() unreliable if the checking is done
after the r->queue clearing and before the consumer_head moving
forward.

Move the r->queue[] clearing after consumer_head moving forward
to make __ptr_ring_empty() checking more reliable.
