The function tty_insert_flip_string() returns an int and as such it might fail. So the result is that I kindly asked to insert 48 bytes and the function only insterted 32. I have no idea what to do with the remaining 16 so I think dropping them is the only option. I also increase the buf_overrun counter so userpace has a clue that we lost bytes.
