So, if I'm correct that means that for the data port (specifically
copying between RAM and the data port) using ioread16/iowrite16 on the
data port results in the correct behaviour. It also means that LE
support in the current driver is broken.

That matches my earlier note when I wrote that for correct work on LE (note
I'm on ARC, not PPC/MB) I needed to use "io{read|write}16" in
"ace_data{in|out}_le16".

With original "io{read|write}16be" instead data was corrupted.

In which case your bug-fix patch should drop the
ace_datain_le16/ace_dataout_le16 variants entirely and use the be16
ones for both (renaming appropriately).

Sorry, do you mean to replace original lines:
=======
static void ace_datain_be16(struct ace_device *ace)
{
int i = ACE_FIFO_SIZE / 2;
u16 *dst = ace->data_ptr;
while (i--)
*dst++ = in_le16(ace->baseaddr + 0x40);
ace->data_ptr = dst;
}

static void ace_dataout_be16(struct ace_device *ace)
{
int i = ACE_FIFO_SIZE / 2;
u16 *src = ace->data_ptr;
while (i--)
ioread16(*src++, ace->baseaddr + 0x40);
ace->data_ptr = src;
}
=======

with something like:
=======
static void ace_datain_16(struct ace_device *ace)
{
int i = ACE_FIFO_SIZE / 2;
u16 *dst = ace->data_ptr;
while (i--)
*dst++ = in_le16(ace->baseaddr + 0x40);
ace->data_ptr = dst;
}

static void ace_dataout_16(struct ace_device *ace)
{
int i = ACE_FIFO_SIZE / 2;
u16 *src = ace->data_ptr;
while (i--)
iowrite16(*src++, ace->baseaddr + 0x40);
ace->data_ptr = src;
}
=======

and then the next patch should replace "io{read|write}16" with "io{read|write}16_rep" I guess, correct?
