Why the double endianess swap? Are the registers defined to be CPU-endian?

You probably mean le32_to_cpu() here, not the other way round, although
the effect is the same.

Maybe I'd doing the whole __le32 thing wrong, but I think cpu_to_le32(wor) is correct. 'wor' is a normal integer, so it's in "cpu" format. I want to convert it to le32 format so that I write an le32 value to memory. Therefore, cpu_to_le32(). Most calls to writel() use cpu_to_le32():
