I like this approach better than the precious one.
However, I had hoped that we could do without such manual configu-
ration like CONFIG_FSL_ESDHC_*_ENDIAN. I mean, we already know the
target byte order, and you know in which byte order you want to
access the data, or is this board dependent?
Best regards,
