I have used the checkpatch.pl to check this patch, and no error or warning found....

I think the units of _offset and _size should be easy for user to understand, so just choose the Byte for _offset and Kbyte for _size...
And as spec said, the _size is (ENH_SIZE_MULT_2 << 16 + ENH_SIZE_MULT_1 << 8 + ENH_SIZE_MULT_0) x HC_WP_GRP_SIZE x HC_ERASE_GPR_SIZE x 512kBytes. It must be Kbytes aligned. That is another reason to choose it.
What do you think?

Thanks
Chuanxiao
