Won't checkpatch bleat about that?

Is it ever actually valid for the caller to provide a
value that isn't 8, 16 or 32 ?

I'm sure it looked as though some other lengths/counts
where likely to go badly wrong.

I know there are times when it is useful to bit-bang 'odd'
numbers of bits - like command+address+delay for fast reads
but that is a sub-32bit transfer so (at least somewhere)
is 1 word but not all the bits.
