Re: [PATCH 2.6.11-rc2 07/29] ide: ide_reg_valid_t endian fix

[Tejun Heo <tj@home-tj.org>]

> 07_ide_reg_valid_t_endian_fix.patch
> 
> 	ide_reg_valid_t contains bitfield flags but doesn't reverse
> 	bit orders using __*_ENDIAN_BITFIELD macros.  And constants
> 	for ide_reg_valid_t, IDE_{TASKFILE|HOB}_STD_{IN|OUT}_FLAGS,
> 	are defined as byte values which are correct only on
> 	little-endian machines.  This patch defines reversed constants
> 	and .h byte union structure to make things correct on big
> 	endian machines.  The only code which uses above macros is in
> 	flagged_taskfile() and the code is currently unused, so this
> 	patch doesn't change any behavior.  (The code will get used in
> 	later patches.)
