Looking at the NetBSD USB code, I see they have tackled this same problem s=
ome=20
time ago by adding a member to struct ohci_softc called 'sc_endian'. Byte=20
swapping is done depending on it's value (which is set in attach routines=20
where needed).
Based on NetBSD's code, I've put together a diff against our current ohci.[=
ch]
that adds the same functionality. With this change, I can get the OHCI=20
controller on the Efika board to work, without breaking other controllers.
The diff can be found here :

Could you consider adding it?
