Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86/intel/tpmi: Use 32 bit aligned address for debugfs mem write
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 12:30:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260325193048.3417349-1-srinivas.pandruvada@linux.intel.com> (raw)

The memory write feature supports 32-bit writes to any TPMI offset.
However, future hardware generations may not allow writes to non-32-bit
aligned addresses due to hardware optimizations.

Since all TPMI addresses are 64-bit aligned and correspond to 64-bit
registers, enforce 32-bit alignment for write operations.
