Can you see what happens on BE device if instead of this whole patch you
just replace crc32() in above line with crc32_le()?

Thank you for your suggestion.
I tried it, but "calc" still has big-endianness value and needs to be converted to little-endianness value.

log:

[    8.725024] u_boot_env 18001200.spi:flash@0:partitions:partition@c0000: Invalid calculated CRC32: 0x88cd6f09 (expected: 0x096fcd88)

"crc32()" seems to be the same as "crc32_le()" [0].

[0]: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.15.94/source/include/linux/crc32.h#L66



      if (calc != crc32) {
          dev_err(dev, "Invalid calculated CRC32: 0x%08x (expected: 0x%08x)\n", calc, crc32);
          err = -EINVAL;

Thanks,
Hiroshi
