These functions are endian specific and just generally ugly. I
understand that these functions may make the ssbi regmap code cleaner,
but that's not really a good excuse for functions which by themselves
look horribly broken.

If these are really needed, perhaps something like the following would
be acceptable?

+static inline int
+ssbi_reg_read(void *context, unsigned int reg, unsigned int *val)
+{
+ int rc;
+ u8 b;
+ rc = ssbi_read(context, reg, &b, 1);
+ if (rc == 1)
+ *val = b;
+ return rc;
+}
+
+static inline int
+ssbi_reg_write(void *context, unsigned int reg, unsigned int val)
+{
+ u8 b = val;
+ return ssbi_write(context, reg, &b, 1);
+}
