AFAICS the memset() for new buffer blocks is wrong:
memset(kaddr+to,0, block_end-to)
It should be
memset(kaddr+max(to,block_start),0,block_end-to)
example:
1 kB block size,
block 0: "old"
block 1: "old"
block 2: new
block 3: new
from=0
to=512
now the memset will overwrite the contents of of block 1 when it initializes
block 2 or 3.
