James,

One more ipr patch to go on top of my previous series I sent. This one fixes
a pretty nasty bug that can cause us to go writing in memory that is not ours.

8<

When ipr's internal driver trace was changed to an atomic, a signed/unsigned
bug slipped in which results in us indexing backwards in our memory buffer
writing on memory that does not below to us. This patch fixes this by removing
the modulo and instead just mask off the low bits.
