Hi.

A few comments additions to add to what Andy has highlighted.
Other than these details and those Andy highlighted, this looks good to me.

As the rest of the structure doesn't have extra spaces
for alignment of variable names, don't do it here either.

I would add some comments on the data layout here given you are
writing the bottom 24bits of a 32 bit big endian variable and that
may be non obvious.

There is also an issue as a result of the union used for the buffer.
It is (I think) possible that earlier read has put a non 0 value
into transf_buf[0]. Now C doesn't guarantee that will be visible
if accessed via buffer.buf[0], but it's certainly possible.
As such you may get garbage in that top byte. It's not a 'problem'
from an ABI point of view, but it might well confused someone
who is for example logging the data stream unprocessed.
We have drivers where the hardware puts something in the bits
that will get screened out using the type (often status info and
similar) but we probably don't want it to be from an entirely different
read or write.

Perhaps just set buf[0] = 0 somewhere in this funciton with a comment
on why.

if (ret)

If you follow through what devm_request_irq calls, you will see
devm_request_threaded_irq internally checks for errors with if (rc) so
we should do the same here. It would also be more consistent with the
rest of your code in this function.

Nitpick. Ideally this would have been in an earlier patch, but it's trivial here so
I'm not that bothered (so don't bother moving it).
