Yes, PCI controllers are LE, but do we really need user-selectable 
USB_OHCI_HCD_PPC_OF_LE option, since USB_OHCI_LITTLE_ENDIAN is selected
by default for USB_OHCI_HCD_PCI?
The USB_OHCI_HCD_PPC_OF_LE/BE stuff is related to PPC OF glue only.
I think it's useless. We should always enable
USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_DESC and USB_OHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO for PPC OF
and the real LE/BE implementation should be selected by the 
corresponding properties in the device tree.
Thanks,
Valentine.
