If I didn't get lost in expanding all those macros, I think the above can end up
with what is essentially a negative value for the index of buf. Shouldn't the
right-hand side of the statement be
(u32 *)PTR_ALIGN(&buf[PADLOCK_ALIGNMENT], PADLOCK_ALIGNMENT);
That resolves to an index for buf from 0 to (PADLOCK_ALIGNMENT - 1).
