This driver still uses the USB stack for DMA transfers,
which is broken for a long time. I almost dropped this driver,
as there's a high chance that nobody is using it with upstream
Kernels, as we didn't receive any bug reports.
As fixing this won't be hard, I ended opting to fix.
While here, I dropped an ugly hack that implemented read via
a separate function that was just doing a memcpy().
It should be noticed that, during the init phase, there's
a "b4" register that were never initialized, as its buffer
were used just to store the results of "b3" initialization.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
