[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 6/7] virtio: fix pci accesses for ppc64 in legacy mode

From: David Marchand <david.marchand at 6wind.com>

Although ppc supports both endianesses, qemu supposes that the cpu is
big endian and enforces this for the virtio-net stuff.

Fix PCI accesses in legacy mode. Only ppc64le is supported at the moment.
