Andrew Jeffery 7664c4a25b fsi: core: Fix small accesses and unaligned offsets via sysfs
[ Upstream commit 9f4c2b516b ]

Subtracting the offset delta from four-byte alignment lead to wrapping
of the requested length where `count` is less than `off`. Generalise the
length handling to enable and optimise aligned access sizes for all
offset and size combinations. The new formula produces the following
results for given offset and count values:

    offset  count | length
    --------------+-------
    0       1     | 1
    0       2     | 2
    0       3     | 2
    0       4     | 4
    0       5     | 4
    1       1     | 1
    1       2     | 1
    1       3     | 1
    1       4     | 1
    1       5     | 1
    2       1     | 1
    2       2     | 2
    2       3     | 2
    2       4     | 2
    2       5     | 2
    3       1     | 1
    3       2     | 1
    3       3     | 1
    3       4     | 1
    3       5     | 1

We might need something like this for the cfam chardevs as well, for
example we don't currently implement any alignment restrictions /
handling in the hardware master driver.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
