When driver has been converted to the bitmap API the non-bitmap functions started behaving differently on 32-bit BE architectures since the bytes in two consequent unsigned longs are in different order in comparison to byte array. Hence if the chip had had more than 32 lines the memset() call over it would have not set up upper lines correctly. Although it's currently a theoretical case (no supported chips of this type has 32+ lines), it's better to provide a clean code to avoid people thinking this is okay and potentially producing not fully working things.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
