The user-facing documentation should explain that reads must be
performed in multiple-of-8 sizes.

Here we do the usual procfs violation of read() behaviour.  read()
normally only returns an error if it read nothing.  This code will
transfer a megabyte then return -EFAULT so userspace doesn't know that
it got that megabyte.

That's easy to fix, but procfs files do this all over the place anyway :(
