In the code stream->oa_buffer.vma->size and OA_BUFFER_SIZE are both used,
if we want to clean that up and only use stream->oa_buffer.vma->size, we
could still do soemthing like I suggested with just power-of-2 sizes and
keep this patch. If we ever have to support non-power-of-2 sizes in the
future we'll just need to change _oa_taken and _rewind_tail
functions. Anyway your call.

Thanks.
