Generic thoughts to consider:
- drop extra brackets around constants - e.g. MIO_EMM_BAR_E_MIO_EMM_PF_BAR4
- use #define or enum instead of inline functions, e.g. MIO_EMM_DMA
- lower-case hex

Yes, thanks. I agree. Let me check, if I can find some time to clean
this up a bit more.

I don't normally see bitfields in U-Boot. Is that a good idea?

It is not, I agree. I've been bitten by those bitfields in the other
Octeon drivers before (I2C, SPI etc). Bitfields make portable driver
code quite hard. You need to add separate bitfield definitions for big-
endian and little-endian support. So I switched on the common drivers,
and with common I mean drivers supporting MIPS Octeon and ARM Octeon
TX/TX2, from using bitfields to BIT_ULL() / GENMASK_ULL etc. This works
just fine with big- and little-endian systems.

But, as you probably have guessed, these header are auto-generated and
changing this to BIT_ULL etc is really painful (time consuming) and also
potentially error prone. So I really would like to stay with the
bitfields for those structs / variables, that are solely used by the
Octeon TX/TX2 (little-endian) platforms.

I hope this is okay.

Thanks,
Stefan
