I'm a quite hesitant about this. IMO, it should do DIV_ROUND_UP(bits, 
BITS_PER_BYTE) or return AE_BAD_PARAMETER when bits is not divisable by 8. 
And if you choose the round up approach, I'm not sure what the write 
should do with the excess bits.

In any case, 8 -> BITS_PER_BYTE.

This should takes bytes into account to not overflow the u8 address?
