Ok, so I guess what this means is that ixp4xx (or xscale in general)
implements its big-endian mode by adding a byteswap on its DRAM
and PCI interfaces in be32 mode, rather than by changing the behavior of
the load/store operations (as be8 mode does) or by having the byteswap
in its load/store pipeline or the top-level AHB bridge?

It's a bit surprising but it sounds plausible and explains most of
the code we see.

I'm still unsure about __indirect_readsl()/ioread32_rep()/insl()/readsl().

insl() does a double-swap on big-endian, which seems right, as we
end up with four swaps total, preserving correct byte order.

__raw_readsl() performs no swap, which would be correct for PCI
(same swap on PCI and RAM, so byteorder is preserved), but wrong
for on-chip FIFO registers (one swap on RAM, no swap on MMIO).
This is probably fine as well, as I don't see any use of __raw_readsl()
on non-PCI devices.

However, when CONFIG_IXP4XX_INDIRECT_PCI is set, both
ioread32_rep() and readsl() call __indirect_readsl(), which
in turn swaps the data once, so I think we actually need this patch:

Does that make sense to you? This is essentially the same thing we already
do for inw/inl/outw/outl.

Ok, I'll change the patch accordingly and resubmit.
