You can add
Tested-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com>

although this still allows us to access bytes that we are not supposed to.

You may be able to calculate access width as something like

min (max_bit_width,
ACPI_ROUND_UP((ACPI_ROUND_DOWN(reg->bit_offset, 8) +
reg->bit_width),
8);
