hmm, this does feel rather obtrusive, because as Marc pointed out the
run structure can be modified from userspace.  So a patch that comes
along later and assumes that run->mmio.len is something sane from the
HSR will break catastrophically.  So I think it'd be better to use a
privat kernel struct for this.


Otherwise, this looks good to me!
