I know :) I was inspired by the same function in c_can_platform.c


About these function I suggest to move them into c_can.c because they 
are the same for c_can_platform.c and c_can_pci.c Then add a new field 
c_can_priv->offset which can be used to shift the register offset 
coherently with the memory alignment. Finally, remove c_can_priv-
>read_reg and c_can_priv->write_reg and use internal c_can.c function to 
read and write registers.

static u16 c_can_read_reg(struct c_can_priv *priv, enum reg index)
{
	return readw(priv->base + (priv->regs[index] << priv->offset));
}
static void c_can_write_reg(struct c_can_priv *priv, enum reg index,
						u16 val)
{
	writew(val, priv->base + (priv->regs[index] << priv->offset));
}


If it's ok, I can made a patch for this in the next days.

We are investigating if this is still necessary on the current version 
of the board.
