Generally, adding a prefix like AR0521_ to defines that are
locally defined in a single file unnecessarily increases
identifier length.

It makes using short line lengths difficult.

e.g. Using this identifier anywhere

> +#define AR0521_REG_HISPI_CONTROL_STATUS_FRAMER_TEST_MODE_ENABLE 0x80

Many of the 80 column line lengths and line wrapping used in this
file are not really nice to read.  I believe you don't have to be
strict about 80 column lines.

It's a pity there's no way to declare an array with all members
having a specific endianness.  Making sure all elements in these
arrays are declared with be() is tedious.

It's almost always better to use ARRAY_SIZE directly and not
use a #define for the array size.

ftrace works and perhaps all the similar debug logging uses aren't
really necessary.
