Commit 3fe9a838ec "dp8393x: Always use 32-bit accesses" set .impl.min_access_size
and .impl.max_access_size to 4 to try and fix the Linux jazzsonic driver which uses
32-bit accesses.
The problem with forcing the register access to 32-bit in this way is that since the
dp8393x uses 16-bit registers, a manual endian swap is required for devices on big
endian machines with 32-bit accesses.
For both access sizes and machine endians the QEMU memory API can do the right thing
automatically: all that is needed is to set .impl.min_access_size to 2 to declare that
the dp8393x implements 16-bit registers.
Normally .impl.max_access_size should also be set to 2, however that doesn't quite
work in this case since the register stride is specified using a (dynamic) it_shift
property which is applied during the MMIO access itself. The effect of this is that
for a 32-bit access the memory API performs 2 x 16-bit accesses, but the use of
it_shift within the MMIO access itself causes the register value to be repeated in both
the top 16-bits and bottom 16-bits. The Linux jazzsonic driver expects the stride to be
zero-extended up to access size and therefore fails to correctly detect the dp8393x
device due to the extra data in the top 16-bits.
The solution here is to remove .impl.max_access_size so that the memory API will
correctly zero-extend the 16-bit registers to the access size up to and including
it_shift. Since it_shift is never greater than 2 than this will always do the right
thing for both 16-bit and 32-bit accesses regardless of the machine endian, allowing
the manual endian swap code to be removed.
