Hello! I tried to index all publicly available Marvell SoC
documentations into kernel documentation subfolder:
https://docs.kernel.org/arm/marvell.html

For Orion there is linked Datasheet and User Manual, so you could try to
find in those documents that mentioned register and check what it is
doing.
