Proxying the cpuif accesses at EL2 makes use of vcpu_data_guest_to_host
and co, which check the endianness, which call into vcpu_read_sys_reg...
which isn't mapped at EL2 (it was inlined before, and got moved OoL
with the VHE optimizations).
The result is of course a nice panic. Let's add some specialized
cruft to keep the broken platforms that require this hack alive.
But, this code used vcpu_data_guest_to_host(), which expected us to
write the value to host memory, instead we have trapped the guest's
read or write to an mmio-device, and are about to replay it using the
host's readl()/writel() which also perform swabbing based on the host
endianness. This goes wrong when both host and guest are big-endian,
as readl()/writel() will undo the guest's swabbing, causing the
big-endian value to be written to device-memory.
What needs doing?
A big-endian guest will have pre-swabbed data before storing, undo this.
If its necessary for the host, writel() will re-swab it.
For a read a big-endian guest expects to swab the data after the load.
The hosts's readl() will correct for host endianness, giving us the
device-memory's value in the register. For a big-endian guest, swab it
as if we'd only done the load.
For a little-endian guest, nothing needs doing as readl()/writel() leave
the correct device-memory value in registers.
Tested on Juno with that rarest of things: a big-endian 64K host.
Based on a patch from Marc Zyngier.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
