This avoids using magic numbers based on the length of an address or a command, while we only want to differentiate between 8-bit and 16-bit. The driver was previously wrapping around the offset in the write operation, this now returns -EINVAL instead (but should never happen in the first place). If two pointer indirections are too many, we could move the flags to the main struct instead, but I doubt it’s going to make any sensible difference on any hardware.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
