This change looks good, but after I've briefly looked at the current driver,
I found at least one more location that looks like an endianess bug:


+static int mtk_spi_fifo_transfer(struct spi_master *master,
+                                struct spi_device *spi,
+                                struct spi_transfer *xfer)
+{
...
+
+       for (i = 0; i < cnt; i++)
+               writel(*((u32 *)xfer->tx_buf + i),
+                      mdata->base + SPI_TX_DATA_REG);
+
+       mtk_spi_enable_transfer(master);
+
+       return 1;
+}

Here, you write data into a FIFO register using an accessor that converts
to little-endian. In contrast, the DMA based accessor apparently has
no byte swap, so most likely one of the two is broken on big-endian
systems. My guess is that the look above is wrong, and you need to
use iowrite32_rep() instead, so you always write into the FIFO in
the byte stream order (first byte to last byte) rather than swapping
32-bit entities.

The other suspicious part is this:

+       reg_val |= (chip_config->tx_endian << SPI_CMD_TX_ENDIAN_OFFSET);
+       reg_val |= (chip_config->rx_endian << SPI_CMD_RX_ENDIAN_OFFSET);

It's not clear what the tx_endian/rx_endian bits refer to and why you
can't just always set the register interface to little-endian. If it's
set to big-endian, you probably need to add more byte swaps in the
driver.
