Thanks for the link. The commit message for that original change [2] indicates
this was a fix on a Powerstation which happens to be a PowerPC aka big-endian.
This this happens to work as intended, but not on little-endian machines.
vendor_id is __be32 (big-endian) and you compare this to PCI_VENDOR_ID_ATI
(0x1002) which is native-endian. I guess you see the problem.
See also [3] where a property is converted properly.
Thinking about it, instead of calling 'is_avivo(*vendor_p, *device_p)'
I'd prefer something like 'is_avivo(be32_to_cpup(vendor_p),
be32_to_cpup(device_p))', so there is no need to pass __be32 around.
Best regards,
Alexander
