You have a better memory than me!

How about we make those functions call my new ones?

Also I think we should rename your functions to avoid using the
dev_read prefix, since this is for reading from the device tree.
Perhaps disk_read()? Also it seems that we could rationalise the code
between disk_read() and part_read() ? Also should have comments in the
header file about what the functions do (and what type of device they
accept).
