The logging fast path seems still a bit slow to me. I would like
to have a logging macro that is not much worse than a stdio putc,
basically something like

          get_cpu();
          if (buffer space > N) { 
              memcpy(buffer, input, N);
              buffer pointer += N;
          } else { 
              FreeBuffer(input, N); 
          }    
          put_cpu();

This would need interrupt protection only if interrupts can access
it, best you use separate buffers for that too.
