If for some reason your device requires something different then the device is more broken than I thought. IE. even with a BE core and an LE device, we use non- byeswap _rep versions, this isn't just because we use "defaults" on powerpc for example, it's necessary to work. Here too, I could suggest you google for my talk on the subject :-) But if you think closely about it, you'll figure out that FIFOs don't have an endian per-se, thus what matters is which byte is first in ascending address order, and that byte must land in memory in the first address as well. Interpreting the resulting data might require endian swaps, but actually transferring to/from the fifo doesn't. > - dwc2_readl, dwc2_writel.

For now > it always does auto detection (see dwc2_detect_endiannes() ). If auto-detect always work, no need to bother with the device-tree. A single flag is enough, either is_big or is_little, doesn't matter. "readl" should always be little, readl_be should always be big, though the latter isn't supported on all archs. However the new accessors in iomap.h should provide a "be" variant on all archs so switching to these might be a good idea. > ( - 80 character per line issues, is it possible to drop the > hsotg->reg + REGISTER from the dwc2_readl/writel since we > pass the hsotg now anyway and do the reg + REGISTER > calculation in the accessor?
