Hi Michal,

I was not able to find any such registers for GEM in the TRM
http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/user_guides/ug585-Zynq-7000-TRM.pdf

I tried writing to dma_cfg (0x00000010) and reading from design_cfg5
(0x00000290)
Its not reflecting anything(design_cfg5 always reads same value); It
is not helping.

The only way (I don't think its not right way either) I can think of
eliminating that
#ifdef __BIG_ENDIAN is reading some register in ARM cpu to identify its
current endianness and write dma_cfg accordingly.
