Right now these ops represent what is sent to the hardware. The address is what is really sent over the wire. The read and write has the same semantics (and limitations, like you can't cross region boundaries etc).
As there is only one kind of method to access OTP right now, I wouldn't want to prematurely optimize it for future ones. It is easy to change afterwards if there is need to. And supplying a length right now would mean to have a loop and some checks in the erase() op; where it should really be "erase one region" and not "erase multiple ones". Mapping from multiple to one should be the duty of the otp core code.
So, one could argue about the parameter "unsigned in region" vs. "loff_t addr" because both represent the same thing. But spi_nor_otp_erase_secr() should really take the address, because that is what the opcode takes as an argument. Thus, changing the argument of the .erase to "unsigned int region" you couldn't just assign spi_nor_otp_erase_secr to .erase but you'd need to have a small wrapper which converts the argument.
So IMHO future will tell if we have to change this to somewhat more generic.
