We base it on the OS endian, as reflected by the endianness of the
interrupt vectors (handled through the ILE bit in the LPCR register).

Using first_cpu to fetch the registers from KVM may look arbitrary
and awkward, but it is okay because KVM sets/unsets the ILE bit on
all CPUs.

Alex,

Welcome back ! :)

Changes since v3:
- rename the helper according to v6 of the main LE virtio patchset
- prepare to support LE ppc64 host
- tentatively fixed the list of changes embeded in SoB lines

Cheers.
