[PATCH] usb: gadget: pxa25x_udc: document endianess better
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Wed Feb 17 2016 - 10:51:40 EST
When I wrote the cleanup patch series, it was not clear how
exactly big-endian mode works on ixp4xx, and whether the driver
was doing this correctly. After discussing with Krzysztof HaÅasa,
this has been clarified, so I can update the comment let pxa25x
big-endian (which we don't support) work the same way as ixp4xx.

/*
- * not sure if this is the correct behavior on ixp4xx in both
- * bit-endian and little-endian modes, but it's what the driver
- * has always done using direct pointer dereferences:
- * We assume that there is a byteswap done in hardware at the
- * MMIO register that matches what the CPU setting is, so we
- * never swap in software.
+ * IXP4xx has its buses wired up in a way that relies on never doing any
+ * byte swaps, independent of whether it runs in big-endian or little-endian
+ * mode, as explained by Krzysztof HaÅasa.
+ *
+ * We only support pxa25x in little-endian mode, but it is very likely
+ * that it works the same way.
