Fun :(

This looks messy.  It's a macro that is trying to be cute by doing:
#define R_REG(r) \
        ({ \
                __typeof(*(r)) __osl_v; \
                __asm__ __volatile__("sync"); \
                __osl_v = bcmsdh_reg_read(NULL, (unsigned long)(r),\
                                          sizeof(*(r))); \
                __asm__ __volatile__("sync"); \
                __osl_v; \
        })

on big-endian, non-mips platforms.  Which I really doubt has ever
been tested before.

Roland, Brett, any thoughts?

Should I just disable this module from being build on PPC as it doesn't
look like its ever been tested or run on that platform before.

I'll fix this up, it looks just like a #include that needs to be added.
