The simplicity is good and this is pretty much what I expected you would end up with
(always reassuring)

For the output, perhaps just add another parameter to the wrapper for minimum
output length expected?

Now you mention the length question.  It does rather feel like there should also
be some protection on memcpy_fromio() copying too much data if the hardware
happens to return an unexpectedly long length.  Should never happen, but
the hardening is worth adding anyway given it's easy to do.
