You're not the only one who's hitting problems with this - Jon Nettleton
has been working on it recently.

The way this has been done is fairly yucky to start with: several things
about it are particularly horrid.  The first is the repetitive code
for the BE and LE cases, when all that's actually different is the
register order between the two code cases.

The second thing is the excessive use of masking - I'm pretty sure the
compiler won't complain with the below.


The second issue is that apparently, the register order doesn't actually
change for LE devices - in other words, the byte order within each register
does change, but they aren't a 64-bit register, they're two separate 32-bit
registers.  So, they should always be written as such.

So, I'd get rid of the #if defined(__BIG_ENDIAN) stuff and instead have:

+/*
+ * The DMA address register is a pair of 32-bit registers, and should
+ * always be accessed as such.
+ */
+#define REG64_HI32(reg) ((u32 __iomem *)(reg))
+#define REG64_LO32(reg) ((u32 __iomem *)(reg) + 1)

Thanks for all your explanations (in the other mail, too).
I, personally, like this approach the best; at least in the current state
of the driver.

Thanks,
