We will rewrite the commit message to accurately describe
what this patch does — it introduces the control plane framework
and data structures, not the TX/RX service implementations.

T9XX currently only targets x86 (little-endian) platforms where
cpu_to_le32() is a no-op. The Kconfig enforces "depends on PCI &&
ACPI" which restricts this to x86 platforms. On little-endian, no
byte-swap occurs at any point, so ffs() operates on the correct
value.

Thanks.
