Neither is the original (retroactively BR) shadow RPTR, except
apparently on suspend (no idea why). It's written by the GPU as it
reads the ringbuffer, because CP_BV_RPTR_ADDR is set to its address.
For the BV shadow RPTR, we aren't really using it for anything (and
neither is kgsl) so we just need to point the register to a valid
"dummy" address that isn't used by anything else.
