I actually tried, but when reading `addr` or `addr+1` I had the same
value. So I guess `addr` wasn't taken into account.
I've checked again, with `.impl.min_access_size = 2`, the width that the
function acpi_pm_cnt_read() get is 2, but addr isn't changed so the
function is still supposed to shift the result (or the value to write)
based on addr, I guess.
