Good point. This would break horribly on a big endian cpu.

There is currently v2 patch set for the intel-fpga PCIe driver being
reviewed where I am adding support for version 2 of the Altera Quadspi
controller.

This technique of separating core driver code from platform/device tree
code has been reviewed and accepted for the Altera Partial Reconfiguration
IP, Altera Freeze Bridge, and the fpga region.
