num_dwords +=

Also round_up() is useless since it's already a multiple of 4. Or did
you mean to change it to emit only 3 dwords per mbox?

The += earlier gets rid of the +4 here.

So we're not expecting dev_priv->ring[] to be sparsely populated ever?

I guess we could also set .sync_to conditionally, but doesn't really
matter since we won't call it anyway w/o semaphores enabled.
