Hi,

Sorry in advance if I am being extremely stupid here.

This will not give the expected result if offset is not a multiple of 
efuse->config.word_size.
This will cause buffer overflow if bytes is not a multiple of 
efuse->config.word_size.
Shouldn't there at least be some sort of test on offset and bytes?

Also this doesn't look endian-safe, but maybe it is.

Old-timer remarks:
- I try to avoid divisions where possible but I suppose they are very 
low-cost on recent hardware.
- I don't like arithmetic on void pointers but I know it is supported by 
gcc (and possibly by recent C standards too).

Sorry again for the noise if I am being stupid.

Cheers,
Chris
