[RESEND PATCH 0/4] Fix endianness of generic I/O accessors

[Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>]

Hello,

This is a resend of the patches I originally sent a while back:

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133552356617938&w=2

There was some loose conclusion then that documentation needed to be
updated, which I didn't get round to doing. However, after discussion
with Ben at LPC (following his `Big and Little Endian inside/out'
presentation), he encouraged me to resend the patches anyway.

So here they are. I also included two extra patches to fix the MMC and
ethernet drivers used on the ARM64 model, which is where I came across
this issue in the first place.

Comments welcome,

Will

Big endian is not dead -- it just smells funny.
