When setting up the DMA for 'read' streaming acquisition on the DIO
subdevice, mark the whole buffer as writable before starting the DMA.
This prevents a spurious detection of a DMA overwrite of good data
during the first interrupt.

Problem reported by Nicholas Nell.  Fix suggested by Frank Mori Hess.
