Why not move the assignment down, then? After we have successfully
mapped all entries?

Coincidentally rswitch_ext_desc_set() calls
rswitch_ext_desc_set_info1() for each desc, potentially timestamping
the same frame multiple times? Isn't that an issue?

I agree with Jake that patches 4 and 5 don't seem like obvious fixes,
would be great if you could post them as separate series, they need to
go to a different tree.
