> The clk gate kunit test checks that the implementation of the basic clk
> gate reads and writes the proper bits in an MMIO register. The
> implementation of the basic clk gate type uses writel() and readl()
> which operate on little-endian registers. This test fails on big-endian
> CPUs because the clk gate implementation writes to 'fake_reg' with
> writel(), which converts the value to be written to little-endian before
> storing the value in the fake register. When the test checks the bits in
> the fake register on a big-endian machine it falsely assumes the format
> of the register is also big-endian, when it is really always
> little-endian. Suffice to say things don't work very well.
