  Okay, just two nitpicks, one about lack of comments, okay those
functions are basically described as part of the driver API so it's a
bit like cut and paste, but I still think it's nicer to have next to
the code, and some lines are really long,

  There is a lot of place like that where the code manipulates 
all the dereference chain a lot of time, why not use temporary 
variables to make the code more readable and help the compiler
w.r.t. generating good code ?

  +1 but maybe we need to revisit a bit that code.
