Time to compile a big list of all the arrangements of chips and the
resultant buffer write length...

So far we have:

device type  interleave  bus width    buf write len
2 (x16)      1           1 (x8)       len/1-1
2 (x16)      1           2 (x16)      len/2-1
2 (x16)      2           4 (x32)      len/4-1

So far it len/buswidth-1...
