DECLARE_KFIFO creates a union with a struct kfifo and a buffer array with
size [size + sizeof(struct kfifo)].
INIT_KFIFO then sets the buffer pointer in struct kfifo to point to the
beginning of the buffer array which means that the first call to kfifo_in
will overwrite members of the struct kfifo.
