Perhaps something like:
void _ath6kl_bmi_write_hi32(struct ath6kl ar, size_t offset, u32 *val)
{
	u32 addr;
	__le32 v;

	addr = ath6kl_get_hi_item_addr(ar, offset);
	v = cpu_to_le32(*val);
	ath6kl_bmi_write(ar, addr, (u8 *)&v, sizeof(v));
}

#define ath6kl_bmi_write_hi32(ar, item, val)		\
	_ath6kl_bmi_write_hi32(ar, HI_ITEM(item), &(val))

etc...
