Not according to the structure definition:

struct diu_ad {
	/* Word 0(32-bit) in DDR memory */
/* 	__u16 comp; */
/* 	__u16 pixel_s:2; */
/* 	__u16 pallete:1; */
/* 	__u16 red_c:2; */
/* 	__u16 green_c:2; */
/* 	__u16 blue_c:2; */
/* 	__u16 alpha_c:3; */
/* 	__u16 byte_f:1; */
/* 	__u16 res0:3; */

	__be32 pix_fmt; /* hard coding pixel format */

I see other places where the endianness of pix_fmt is assumed.  I'll have 
to fix those later.

When I look at the 5121 and 1022 reference manuals, it says that the area 
descriptor is little-endian.  I think York made this register big-endian 
so that it matches the endianness of get_pixel_format(), which doesn't 
make much sense.  I'll have to fix the whole endianness thing with pix_fmt 
in another patch.

I don't think the endianness of get_pixel_format() is fixed.  It's 
whatever the CPU native endiannes is.  That's why I added a cpu_to_be32().

Anyway, I'm not quite sure what the right answer is, but it seems obvious 
that cpu_to_be32() is wrong.  I'll post another patch which removes it.
