should this pad ctx->curr wth spaces for the case where

'\0' probably shows the intent more clearly.

Does this need locking to prevent concurrent writes from racing and
leaking memory?

should the number of spaces depend on the length of the display?

the only error case in ascii_led_display seems to be failure to
allocate, at which point timer won't have been started yet, so you could
just return err here. Any future error case added after starting timer
should probably be handled by ascii_lcd_display() anyway.

Should you have MODULE_AUTHOR/DESCRIPTION/LICENSE and friends in here
too for when built as a module?
