You drop the warnings using casting, but is it correct ? time_off is
defined as u8 (correctly, because this is the size of the register). If
you write 32bit, you risk to overwrite the time_on, time_1 and time_2w
registers.
Why do not use writeb ?

Understood. You *want* to write all registers in one shot. However this
is hackish. Or you write each register separetely, or you use a union to
access the register block with a 32 bit access. Everybody reading
"writel(val, &ata_regs->time_off)" expects that time_off is 32bit wide.
