The TR/CR tail data are meant to be per-queue-arrays, however, we allocate them completely wrong (we have a separate allocation per queue). Looking at this more closely, it turns out that the hardware never uses these - we have a separate free list per RX queue and maintain a write pointer for that in a register, and the RX itself is indicated in the RB status (rb_stts) DMA region. Despite nothing using the tail pointers, the hardware will unconditionally access them to write updates, even when we aren't using CRs/TRs. Give it dummy values that we never use/update so it can do that without causing trouble.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
