If the firmware is big it might be better to just add the necessary conversions to the driver and always use BE. Endian conversions tend to be very cheap. Also we probably should have BE/LE Kconfig symbol for this to handle such cases more elegantly in the future. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
