Yeah, we could do that, but what's the advantage of it? The alignment
of the buffer descriptors is kinda finnicky and matters to
performance, so it seems better not to prefix them with something that
might perturb it. If we just rebase Andres' patch over what I just
committed and add in something so that the buffer numbers are fed from
#defines or an enum instead of being random integers, I think we're
done.
