    io/ring.h: drop unused and broken *_RING_ATTACH() macros
    
    Initializing r*_prod_pvt and r*_cons from independent shared ring
    fields is broken, as other macros in this header rely on them being
    coupled. Furthermore using the backend variant would also imply a
    security vulnerability.
