Using the __raw functions is discouraged.  Update the driver to use the
relaxed functions.

This should mention that it fixes the driver for big-endian kernels.

However, it seems that the fix is only correct for the MMIO
registers, while the polled FIFO access is now wrong AFAICT,
both reader and writer:

static void dw_reader(struct dw_spi *dws)
{
        u32 max = rx_max(dws);
        u16 rxw;

        while (max--) {
                rxw = dw_read_io_reg(dws, DW_SPI_DR);
                /* Care rx only if the transfer's original "rx" is not null */
                if (dws->rx_end - dws->len) {
                        if (dws->n_bytes == 1)
                                *(u8 *)(dws->rx) = rxw;
                        else
                                *(u16 *)(dws->rx) = rxw;
                }
                dws->rx += dws->n_bytes;
        }
}

As the FIFO is a byte stream, we have to use a non-swapping
accessor here, such as readsl() which would also take care of the
loop. The "n_bytes == 1" case probably should look like e.g.

	*(u8 *)(dws->rx) = *(u8 *)&rxw;

so you are sure to get the first byte of the rxw variable
rather than the lower 8 bits.

What is the reason for using readl_relaxed() rather than the
normal readl() here? In almost all instances that these are
called, you don't care about the added latency and should just
default to the normal I/O functions.
