Version 2 of fixing the fixed register width assumption.
Not every device uses 32-bit wide register. The app was allocating too
little space for 64-bit registers which resulted in memory corruption.
This commit resolves this by getting the size of register in bytes for
a specific device. If the device does not implement this function, it
fallsback to sizeof(uint32_t)
