+ * Read/write a 16 bit word from flash address 'addr'.
+ *
+ * When the cpu is in little-endian mode it swizzles the address lines
+ * ('address coherency') so we need to undo the swizzling to ensure commands
+ * and the like end up on the correct flash address.
+ *
+ * To further complicate matters, due to the way the expansion bus controller
+ * handles 32 bit reads, the byte stream ABCD is stored on the flash as:
+ *     D15    D0
+ *     +---+---+
+ *     | A | B | 0
+ *     +---+---+
+ *     | C | D | 2
+ *     +---+---+
+ * This means that on LE systems each 16 bit word must be swapped. Note that
+ * this requires CONFIG_MTD_CFI_BE_BYTE_SWAP to be enabled to 'unswap' the CFI
+ * data and other flash commands which are always in D7-D0.
