+Subject: [PATCH v4] usb: dwc2: fix regression on big-endian PowerPC/ARM systems
+Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 15:52:27 +0200
+Message-Id: <1463147559-544140-1-git-send-email-arnd@arndb.de>
+
+A patch that went into Linux-4.4 to fix big-endian mode on a Lantiq
+MIPS system unfortunately broke big-endian operation on PowerPC
+APM82181 as reported by Christian Lamparter, and likely other
+systems.
+
+It actually introduced multiple issues:
+
+- it broke big-endian ARM kernels: any machine that was working
+ correctly with a little-endian kernel is no longer using byteswaps
+ on big-endian kernels, which clearly breaks them.
+- On PowerPC the same thing must be true: if it was working before,
+ using big-endian kernels is now broken. Unlike ARM, 32-bit PowerPC
+ usually uses big-endian kernels, so they are likely all broken.
+- The barrier for dwc2_writel is on the wrong side of the __raw_writel(),
+ so the MMIO no longer synchronizes with DMA operations.
+- On architectures that require specific CPU instructions for MMIO
+ access, using the __raw_ variant may turn this into a pointer
+ dereference that does not have the same effect as the readl/writel.
+
+This patch is a simple revert for all architectures other than MIPS,
+in the hope that we can more easily backport it to fix the regression
+on PowerPC and ARM systems without breaking the Lantiq system again.
+
+We should follow this up with a more elaborate change to add runtime
+detection of endianness, to make sure it also works on all other
+combinations of architectures and implementations of the usb-dwc2
+device. That patch however will be fairly large and not appropriate
+for backports to stable kernels.
+
+Felipe suggested a different approach, using an endianness switching
+register to always put the device into LE mode, but unfortunately
+the dwc2 hardware does not provide a generic way to do that. Also,
+I see no practical way of addressing the problem more generally by
+patching architecture specific code on MIPS.
