framebuffer access in little endian mode

[Ralph Blach]

Laurent,

One thought would be to modify the pte entries to support little endian and have an
IO_Remap little endian.  (To those who think this is herasy or what ever, I accept you
critisisms.)

Any body else out there with better, and I know there must be better solutions?
