[PATCH 4.5 156/238] ARC: [BE] readl()/writel() to work in Big Endian CPU configuration

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Apr 10 2016 - 14:49:46 EST


4.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Lada Trimasova <ltrimas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f778cc65717687a3d3f26dd21bef62cd059f1b8b upstream.

read{l,w}() write{l,w}() primitives should use le{16,32}_to_cpu() and
cpu_to_le{16,32}() respectively to ensure device registers are read
correctly in Big Endian CPU configuration.

Per Arnd Bergmann
| Most drivers using readl() or readl_relaxed() expect those to perform byte
| swaps on big-endian architectures, as the registers tend to be fixed endian

This was needed for getting UART to work correctly on a Big Endian ARC.

The ARC accessors originally were fine, and the bug got introduced
inadventently by commit b8a033023994 ("ARCv2: barriers")
