Never mind. Silly me don't know my history. 

asm-powerpc/io.h clearly states

 * The *_ns versions below don't do byte-swapping.
 * Neither do the standard versions now, these are just here

Seems that the byteswapping machanism was changed a while ago, 
and no longer handled in this way any more.
