yeah. Say you have wlen = 8 but the transfer length is 8 bytes (64
bits). If you use writeb(), you will do 8 writes, if you use writel()
you'll do 2 writes.

right on. To make sure this will execute a little faster (you never know
what several different versions of GCC will do), instead of multiplying
by 8, left shift by 3.

alright, make that clear in your commit log.
