Why do errors appear? Is that due to a HW bug? Some other reason?

Same here: it needs to explain why the processing fails.

Wouldn't it be more robust if you say:

		unsigned char data[sizeof(send_obj->share_buf)];

I also think that the SHARE_BUF_SIZE define needs a comment stating that it must be a
multiple of 8, otherwise unexpected things can happen.

You also noticed that the current SHARE_BUF_SIZE define is too low, but I saw
no patch correcting this. Shouldn't that be fixed as well?
