Thanks, Greg, for taking time out for review and providing your valuable
feedback. We do not have strong affiliation to drivers/bus/cdx so will move
it to drivers/cdx in the next spin.

Agree. Using idr/ida seems more appropriate. Will update the code
accordingly.

While reading from the hardware, these values are little-endian; and
they are converted to CPU endianness by the controller code using
le_to_cpu32() and then passed as CPU endian while registering the
CDX device.
