These last two lines will always be 0, which, without looking at any
specs, is not right...

...but then this doesn't write it to the sink anyway, and it's unclear
to me what this actually ends up doing or returning. For certain it's
all wrong.

Someone(tm) will still need to properly review the rest of the patch,
these just caught my eye at a quick glance.
