Hi,

I'm currently trying to get PCIe working on LS1021A (little-endian ARM). For link-detection I need access to a syscon perpheral (SCFG) which is attched to CPU as big-endian.
The corresponding DT part is:

		scfg: scfg@...0000 {
			compatible = "fsl,ls1021a-scfg", "syscon";
			reg = <0x0 0x1570000 0x0 0x10000>;
			big-endian;
		};

Based on current linus's master (a24e3d414e59ac765, "Merge branch 'akpm' (patches from Andrew)") I noticed the access is actually done as little-endian.
I could track it down to commit 922a9f936e40001f ("regmap: mmio: Convert to regmap_bus and fix accessor usage"). Reverting it, the access is fine now and I get my PCIe link.

Best regards,
Alexander
