Thanks for looking at this,
TBH, usage of CIRC_* macros is only valid for power-of-2 buffers,
In bam case MAX_DESCRIPTORS is 4095.
Am really not sure why 8 bytes have been removed from fifo data buffer size.
So basically usage of these macros is incorrect in bam case, this need
to be fixed properly.

Do you agree?

Vinod, can you hold off with this patch, I will try to find some time
this week to cook up a better patch removing the usage of these macros.



thanks,
srini
