Dear Arnd Bergmann,

Using 

	if (IS_ENABLED(__BIG_ENDIAN))

here would make it more readable by avoiding the #if. Alternatively,
you could leave the XOR_DESCRIPTOR_SWAP flag disabled and just swap
the descriptors manually like a lot of other drivers do. You have
to swap the mmio accesses anywya.
Agreed on IS_ENABLED(). However, I don't understand the comment about
the need to swap mmio accesses? We're using readl_relaxed() /
writel_relaxed(), and they do the swapping already. Am I missing
something?

Best regards,

Thomas
