Macronix swaps bytes on a 16-bit boundary when configured in Octal DTR.
The byte order of 16-bit words is swapped when read or write written in
8D-8D-8D mode compared to STR modes. Swapping the bytes is a bad design
decision because this may affect the boot sequence if the entire boot
sequence is not handled in either 8D-8D-8D mode or 1-1-1 mode. Allow
operations to specify the byte order in DTR mode, so that controllers
can
swap the bytes back at run-time to fix the endianness, if they are
capable.

The byte order in 8D-8D-8D mode can be retrieved at run-time by
checking
BFPT[DWORD(18)] BIT(31). When set to one, the "Byte order of 16-bit
words
is swapped when read in 8D-8D-8D mode compared to 1-1-1 mode.". It
doesn't
specify if this applies to both register and data operations. Macronix
is
the single user of this byte swap and it doesn't have clear rules, as
it
contains register operations that require data swap (RDPASS, WRPASS,
PASSULK, RDSFDP) and register operations that don't require data swap
(WRFBR). All these are not common and can be handled in 1-1-1 mode, so
we
can ignore them for now. All the other register operations are done on
one
byte length. The read register operations are actually in 8D-8D-8S
mode,
as they send the data value twice, on each half of the clock cycle. In
case
of a register write of one byte, the memory supports receiving the
register
value only on the first byte, thus it discards the value of the byte on
the
second half of the clock cycle. Swapping the bytes for one byte
register
writes is not required, and for one byte register reads it doesn't
matter.
Thus swap the bytes only for read or page program operations.

This looks wrong what if there are 0's in SNOR_PROTO_8_8_8_DTR? If this
happens to be the same as SNOR_PROTO_MASK (which doesn't exist) this
deserves a comment.

I'm not sure I understand the comment. SNOR_PROTO_8_8_8_DTR has value 0x80808.
This method is added to cover the classical 8D-8D-8D mode and the 8D-8D-8D mode
with bytes swapped. This method will return true for both cases.

I know it should cover both cases, or that is what I dedcuded because
you moved the simple compare into a helper. It works in this case,
because all values just have mutually exclusive bits, thus I think this
deserves a comment.

Usually, you'd mask a field and then compare it with a value. So I'd
have expected sth like:

#define MASK (SNOR_PROTO_INST_MASK | SNOR_PROTO_ADDR_MASK | SNOR_PROTO_DATA_MASK)
return proto & (MASK | SNOR_PROTO_IS_DTR) == SNOR_PROTO_8_8_8_DTR;

+
+     return ((proto & mask) == mask);

isn't "return proto & SNOR_PROTO_IS_DTR_BSWAP16;" enough here?

Byte swap can be done only on DTR modes. SNOR_PROTO_IS_DTR_BSWAP16
without SNOR_PROTO_IS_DTR doesn't make sense. This method includes
this sanity check.

I don't think this is the best place for sanity checks TBH.
