I thought subsequent patch will make it clear, but I can add more
info in cover letter. I will enhance this commit as well.

This value is (16 + 1) page_size, which is found sufficient for most
of the slow devices. 16 page_size is for the ringbuffer and 1 page_size
for the headre. This is the approximation for default case, to avoid
using fall back case of 512 page_size as used by uio_hv_generic.

I can add a comment here like below:

/* 
 * Total memory in bytes allocated for the one complete ring buffer,
 * which includes the ring buffer header, of size PAGE_SIZE. This value
 * should be aligned to page_size.
 */
