The sticking point for me was the ringbuffer and Braswell having to
re-ioremap it every context pin. I hadn't noticed the kmap of the
context, but this does seem like a valid use for pin_map so I'm not
complaining... (Just saying this half the solution ;)

Oh, and you don't have pin_map for your ringbuffer either yet.
