Please the patch into two parts, one per file; the required changes
for endianness support in tcpci.c are much more complex.

We have pd_header_cnt_le() for this purpose.

Yueyao, can you have a look into those changes for the fusb302 driver
? Is it safe to assume that we didn't hit a problem because the
hardware is little endian ?

pd_header_cnt_le()

Excellent catch, but the fix is wrong. We don't want to change the
endianness here, since the data is sent to the chip. This will require
a (much) more comprehensive fix - header should probably be le16, the
second parameter to tcpci_write16() needs to be le16, plus everything
that comes with it (currently the code is just not endianness clean).
tcpci_read16() is also incorrect and has the same problem (it is
really a bad idea to read 16 bit into an unsigned int pointer).

Let me know if you want to try to fix this; otherwise I'll do it.

Thanks,
Guenter
