Hi Simran,

It's probably good to get back to this one while we have Noralf's
attention.

While the change above - in fbtft-bus.c is a problem, the change
below in fbtft-io.c looks ok.  So, compare what you did.  You can't
*not* do the endian conversion.

This is a cleanup change, a cosmetic change.  There is no underlying
bug, so you just need to get the typing correct w/out affecting
behavior.

BTW: I think it's OK to pull this one out and send a v3 of this alone.
That would mean abandoning the patchset and doing them one at a time.
They are all in different drivers anyway.
