If you use readl/writel, you don't need to byteswap as it's done for
you by those functions. If you used readb/writeb, then you are reading
bytes, swapping has no meaning.
Also, don't hard code 0x0002, better #define a constant, it makes the
code more readable.
cpu_to_le32/le32_to_cpu() are necessary if you are either not using
readx/writex accessors, or when storing datas in memory that the
controller will read directly (bus master)
