To support the error handling of a truncated bitstream sent.
The current AIB CvP firmware is not capable of handling a
data stream smaller than 4096bytes. The firmware's limitation
causes a hung-up as it's DMA engine waits forever for the
completion of the instructed 4096bytes.
To resolve this design limitation, both firmware and CvP
driver made several changes. At the CvP driver, we just
have to ensure that anything lesser than 4096bytes are
padded with extra bytes. The CvP will then, initiate the
tear-down by clearing the START_XFER and CVP_CONFIG bits.
We should also check for CVP_ERROR during the CvP completion.
A send_buf which is always 4096bytes is used to copy the
data during every transaction.

Why is it necessary to hold  the send_buf in this structure ?

If it is used only in *_write, could it alloc/freed there ?

Because the write happens rarely, my preference is to alloc/free in *_write().

Should this be STEP 17 ? the old 16 checked something else.
