It implies the avail and used bits to be cleared beforehand.
Maybe it would be safer to clear them in the helper?

Not sure this helper is really useful, as it ends up
doing two checks in a row.

So it could be simplified to:

{
	if (++vq->vq_avail_idx >= vq->vq_entries) {
		vq->vq_avail_idx = 0;
		vq->vq_ring.avail_wrap_counter ^= 1;
	}

	return vq->vq_avail_idx;
}
