tpm_tis_core.h currently has access functions defined like:
static inline int tpm_tis_read16(struct tpm_tis_data *data, u32 addr,
                                 u16 *result)
{
        return data->phy_ops->read16(data, addr, result);
}

And it's up to the drivers implementing phy_ops to do (or not)
byte-swapping as necessary before/after IO ops. For example,
tpm_tis.c in its phy_ops->read16 simply does ioread16(), while
tpm_tis_spi.c (and cr50_spi.c) does phy_ops->read_bytes()
followed by le16_to_cpu().

Still, I can create add'l inline functions:
static inline int tpm_tis_read_le16(struct tpm_tis_data *data,
                                    u32 addr, u16 *result)
{
	int rc;

	rc = data->phy_ops->read_bytes(data, addr,
				       sizeof(u16), (u8 *)result);
	if (!rc)
		*result = le16_to_cpu(*result);
	return rc;
}
and re-use them both in cr50_spi.c and tpm_tis_spi.c

The only two things that bother me with such approach are
(1) whatever names I pick for the new set of functions, they
    will be similar to and thus might be confused with the
    original tpm_tis_read/writeXX;
(2) these functions are phy-specific, so possibly it's better
    to create tpm_tis_spi.h and put them there with proper
    name prefixes. And then use in tpm_tis_spi and cr50_spi.

Any preferences on what I should better do?
