I think a better question would be - how can this function be called
with a size that isn't 1, 2 or 4? I suppose if someone were to add
another PCI_OP_READ/PCI_OP_WRITE. However... they really need to audit
every implementation if they do that.

The generic implementation does this:

if (size == 1)
*val = readb(addr);
else if (size == 2)
*val = readw(addr);
else
*val = readl(addr);

and therefore completely ignores the size if it isn't 1 or 2. So I
don't think this is something that needs fixing.

If we're going to fix this in drivers, shouldn't we fix the generic
implementation too?
