Isn't the whole patch architecture-specific ?

Since the ppc doesn't have a byteswap instruction (and the LE
memory transfers might even be slow!) you really don't want to
be doing software byteswap.

Not to mention the horrific synchronistion instructions
that in_le32() and out_le32() actually contain.

I didn't find __raw_readl() when I was looking for asm
patterns that byteswapped memory transfers.

I did find st_le32() and ld_le32() in arch/powerpc/include/asm/swab.h
but that file is actually quite difficult to #include because
there is another swab.h that gets included instead.
