Forgot to mention that my testing on this change has been pretty
'light' with a couple of runs of my generic buffer test on a modified
max1363 driver. Hence would be great if anyone else has a chance
to check this hasn't messed things up for them! Also forgot to
edit the patch title to say it was an rfc at this point.
> By bypassing the standard macros for setting up the kfifo we can
