fsi: core: Fix small accesses and unaligned offsets via sysfs
Subtracting the offset delta from four-byte alignment lead to wrapping
of the requested length where `count` is less than `off`. Generalise the
length handling to enable and optimise aligned access sizes for all
offset and size combinations. The new formula produces the following
results for given offset and count values:
offset count | length
--------------+-------
0 1 | 1
0 2 | 2
0 3 | 2
0 4 | 4
0 5 | 4
1 1 | 1
1 2 | 1
1 3 | 1
1 4 | 1
1 5 | 1
2 1 | 1
2 2 | 2
2 3 | 2
2 4 | 2
2 5 | 2
3 1 | 1
3 2 | 1
3 3 | 1
3 4 | 1
3 5 | 1
We might need something like this for the cfam chardevs as well, for
example we don't currently implement any alignment restrictions /
handling in the hardware master driver.
