You export this but it's not clear who for or why - and there is also no
locking, so it seems to be an internal interface ?

gcc will figure out inlines for you in static stuff and normally very well

So if this is compiled into a kernel we blindly inb this address and some
platform just crashed on boot. Is this board like other embedded ones in
that there is some safe way to check if its such a board first ?

Assuming you've indentified the board properly this case might be worth a
pr_err giving the fact it seemed to be a TS-5xxx, the config number and
that it is unknown - that will help anyone with future boards realise
their config isn't supported.

Suppose off is 0x7FFFFFFF and count = 100

	to_copy = 100
	off + to_copy >= procfs_buffer_size   [off_t may be 32bit]

	100 + 0x7FFFFFFF (wraps) < buffer size

Well that will depend why and probably the caller can give the best
information including silence if the board is just not a ts-5xxx

pr_err

Printk not needed
