Thanks for the info - we've changed the previous unaligned access calls to use cpu_to_le32() and le32_to_cpu() instead for the swapping operations.

Thanks!

But... looking again at the current code, I'm no longer sure whether we need this conversion. Basically in the hda controller driver itself, the endianness is corrected before writing and after reading the raw value. So, for these, I don't think it's really needed.

And the firmware byte stream should have been already set in LE, as it's fed directly...

-- Handle endianness of the SCP buffer being sent to or from the DSP chip on big-endian host architectures. The SCP buffer is prepared in dspio_scp(), and bytes are swapped before being transferred by the codec in dspio_send().
