_CData.from_buffer() is meant to take a writable buffer, and create a “ctypes” object that shares the same memory. So it should not release the buffer until that “ctypes” object is no longer needed.

However I don’t know the insides of memoryview() objects that well so I can’t say if the hack-the-memoryview code is correct or not.
