I think that you should instead remove the 'const' modifier from the
'omap_write_buf_dma_pref()' function. Indeed, if it has the 'const'
modifier, it should never change the bugger.

BTW, this patch is still corrupted for me. And it is strange that I do
not see it in the archives, so I cannot check is this my setup which is
guilty, or it is you sending the patches incorrectly:

Write calls are intended to copy data bytes from supplied buffer to
