[MTD] MAPS/ixp4xx.c: fix BE system break in 2.6.15-rc1, enable LE operation in 2.6.15
Linux 2.6.14.2 with NSLU2 patches excluding patches to ixp4xx.c
correctly boots on a BE (default) NSLU2 system from a JFFS2 rootfs
in the on-board flash.
Linux 2.6.15-rc1 with NSLU2 patches (excluding ixp4xx.c) and with
or without the additional patches from DVrabel:
mtd-unaligned-read-fix1.txt
mtd-little-endian-support.txt
fails during boot on NSLU2 BE because the probe of the on board flash
fails.
This patch applies to 2.6.15-rc1 (without any additional patches) and
fixes the problems so that 2.6.15-rc1+NSLU2 patches(excluding ixp4xx.c)+
this patch works in all cases where 2.6.14.2+NSLU2 patches (including,
in this case, the NSLU2 submitted ixp4xx.c patch). That is to say,
the patched system will function correctly in both BE and LE modes using
(reading *and* writing) a JFFS2 from the on-board flash.
The comments in the patch explain the problems being fixed and how the
fix is achieved. The fix is equivalent to the previously submitted
NSLU2 patch.
The full problem set is as follows, where '2.6.14' means 2.6.14 without
the NSLU2 patches, '2.6.15' means 2.6.15-rc1 without NSLU2 patches
and 'Vrabel' means 2.6.15-rc1 with the two patches mentioned above.
[2.6.14 BE]: boots, writeable JFFS2 but alignment problems for some reads
[2.6.14 LE]: does not work, flash probe fails, flash not accessible
[2.6.15, Vrabel BE]: does not work, flash probe fails, flash not accessible
[Vrabel LE]: boots, flash readable, flash fails on write (because the write
byte swaps the bytes written, whereas the copy-from API used for the read
does not).
