Sorry, that was sloppy on my part. Here's what I meant:
et131x_mii_read(adapter, MII_BMCR, (u16 *)®s_buff[num++]);
That puts the number in the 2 high bits which works for little
endian systems but not for big endian. It should be something like:
u16 tmp;
et131x_mii_read(adapter, MII_BMCR, &tmp);
regs_buff[num++] = tmp;
regards,
