Yes, it's not a Python :-)

Then better to have a logical split then?

			dev_err(dev, "Cannot read MCU %s firmware version: %d\n",
				type, err);

the tautology confusing.

	...the 'reading' feature

may be a good compromise.

It would work on architectures that support misaligned accesses, but in general
you are right. Perhaps a comment on top to avoid "cleanup" patches like this?

Who prevents from having in a new firmware let's say

 BIT(31) | BIT(1)

as a new value?
