Dear Keith,

In this macro definition, bus->ops->read needs to ensure the byte order 
of the read, as Lukas mentioned; otherwise, there is also a big-endian 
issue at this location.

I searched and learned that readb/readw/readl automatically handle byte 
order, so there is no big-endian order issue.
