Hmm...
Since we are using byte array for the value, can we actually use
memset() to show that explicitly? Perhaps in that way it will be more visible?

But hold on, wouldn't this have an endianess issue? The call fills in LE,
while here you use the CPU order.

That said, I think you should have something like

	u8 value[3];

	ioread8_rep(..., value, sizeof(value));

	*val = get_unaligned_le24(value);
