Correct me if I am wrong, I think this will break for ETR configuration (used from the following
patch 17/18). Since, for ETR, RRP/RWP will return the lower 32bit AXI address (not the queue offset).
So the last step would really spoil the read_ptr. We might have to set the read_ptr by adding the
appropriate offset from DBAL0.
