And as currently implemented, can not.

I think this passes checkpatch without warning:

	return (dt3155_fbuffer[m]->ready_head -
		dt3155_fbuffer[m]->ready_len +
		dt3155_fbuffer[m]->nbuffers) %
	       dt3155_fbuffer[m]->nbuffers;

It might be better to use a temporary for dt3155_fbuffer[m]
so the code could look more like:
	return (p->ready_head - p->ready_len + p->nbuffers) % p->nbuffers;
