While for the scenario like our LS1(ARM) platform. CPU SSI LE BE then should we set the .val_format_endian to REGMAP_ENDIAN_BIG
And so not only for PowerPC, but also maybe for ARM platforms. So here how about just adding one Boolean property like 'big-endian' in DT node to learn the endianness of the devices dynamically ?
That's not a bad idea. The property should be something like, "fsl,ssi-endian" and is should be set to "big", "little", or "native". In the absence of the property, it should default to native endian.
