This read can be avoided if the new head can be returned from '__rte_ring_hts_head_wait'.

Why not use 32b atomic operation here and update just the tail?

Would be good to return the new_head from this function and use it in '__rte_ring_hts_update_tail'.

Minor, suggest removing the elaborate comments, it is not required and difficult to maintain.
I think we should do the same thing for other files too.

I think we can use 32b atomic operation here and just update the head.
