The type of head needs to match that of tail in order for rollover and
comparisons to work correctly.
Without this change the comparison of tail to head might incorrectly allow
io_uring to use a buffer that userspace had not given it.
Fixes: c7fb19428d67 ("io_uring: add support for ring mapped supplied buffers")

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.
