The patch
MIPS: dt: Explicitly specify native endian behaviour for syscon
has been applied to the asoc tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark

From: Mark Brown broonie@kernel.org Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 18:08:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: dt: Explicitly specify native endian behaviour for syscon
On many MIPS systems the endianness of IP blocks is kept the same as that of the CPU by the hardware. This includes the system controllers on these systems which are controlled via syscon which uses the regmap API which used readl() and writel() to interact with the hardware, meaning that all writes are converted to little endian when writing to the hardware. This caused a bad interaction with the regmap core in big endian mode since it was not aware of the byte swapping and so ended up performing little endian writes.
Unfortunately when this issue was noticed it was addressed by updating the DT for the affected devices to specify them as little endian. This happened to work since it resulted in two endianness swaps which cancelled each other out and gave little endian behaviour but meant that the DT was clearly not accurately describing the hardware.
The intention of commit 29bb45f25ff305 (regmap-mmio: Use native endianness for read/write) was to fix this by making regmap default to native endianness but this breaks most other MMIO users where the hardware has a fixed endianness and the implementation uses the __raw accessors which are not intended to be used outside of architecture code. Instead use the newly added native-endian DT property to say exactly what we want for these systems.
