Please delete unneeded context from mails when replying.  Doing this
makes it much easier to find your reply in the message, helping ensure
it won't be missed by people scrolling through the irrelevant quoted
material.

cpu_to_be16() and so on.

Let's figure out what the hardware does first, espcially given that it's
this chip where we seem to be seeing a lot of confusion about endianness
issues.

Is this area of the register map perhaps supposed to be accessed as a
byte stream?

Please don't add randomm characters that don't mean anything before
people's names, it doesn't help make things legible especially when
they're scanning through enormous quantities of text.
