Thanks! for clarification, actually we are not swapping , just 
Converting address buffer into word format (MSB first).

while testing on my platform I have hardcoded to 4 instead of 8, for me 
it is working fine.
should be handled properly for OCTAL mode once your changes are ready

yes, overflow should be handled
once started working on your platform with your changes, I will squash 
and send it back.
Thanks for your time.
