If the target kernel does not inlcude the FIXUP_ENDIAN check, coming
from a different-endian kernel will cause the target kernel to panic.
All ppc64 kernels can handle starting in big-endian mode, so return to
big-endian before branching into the target kernel.

This mainly affects pseries as secondaries on powernv are returned to
OPAL.
