I see, the code and the naming is confusing. Two exynos_acpm_shmem_chan
variables and one exynos_acpm_shmem. shmem_chans is used as an array,
but nowhere pointed or indicated that it is array of some size.

All this could be clearer if exynos_acpm_shmem_chan was packed, because
then it is obvious it points to defined memory, but maybe packed is not
correct here? Probably splitting all this into logical chunks would be
useful. Like not mixing reading offsets with reading values, because I
really have to spend a lot of time to identify which one is which in
exynos_acpm_chans_init().

Best regards,
