These might read better as

	len /= 4;
Where did the magic value of 4 come from?
	for (i = 0; i<  len; i++) {
		u16 devid	= be32_to_cpu(*paddr++);
		u16 reg		= be32_to_cpu(*paddr++);
		u16 mask	= be32_to_cpu(*paddr++);
		u16 val_bits	= be32_to_cpu(*paddr++);
Is the main problem that they didn't align, or that the index was 
explicit instead of implicit?
