So whatever the problem of LS1 is, this change doesn't matter to LS1 at all unless LS1 has a specific property in its DT binding: If using is_msb_first works for LS1, using big_endian_data without applying this patch does work as well, doesn't it? I think this patch is more likely making the binding explicit so that any platform like LS1 will not miss the essential property. Then the commit comments could have mentioned it if so. I'm looking forward to your new version. And I give you an extra info about SAI on i.MX. It should be configured as Little Endian and MSB first. So with the current DT binding it doesn't have big_endian* properties. Any replacement for big_endian_data shall be compatible to this case as well as I mentioned in the previous reply.
