I'm not sure if you point out the mistake here (should be "4 <<"), or the fact that rounding is happening. If it's the latter, then it's of no concern: the values derived here are used to calculate buffer size.

I'm submitting a new series where this is fixed.

Done in next series.

I opted not to, in favor of passing the actual device type. It comes out to the same thing, except a simple value is passed around instead of a device.

Thanks, this is what I was missing.
