> [S.H] To use a define is based on a concern that we cannot assume the I/O access of an IP share same endianness as the Soc(s), we cannot assume on little endian Soc the I/O access is little endian, on big endian Soc the I/O access is big endian, the I/O access could be little endian on big endian Soc and vice versa.

You're saying that the IP is expected to be in different endianness? If that is practically the case, then I'm fine with this patch. I just want to ensure that it is not just speculative generality.
[S.H] Yes. The IP is in different endianness, i.e. little endian on LS2, big endian on PowerPc Soc(s).
Thank you!
