Under a big-endian kernel, colours on the framebuffer all come out a
delightful shade of wrong, since we fail to take the reversed byte
order into account. Fortunately, the HDLCD has a control bit to make it
automatically byteswap big-endian data; let's use it as appropriate.

Signed-off-by: Robin Murphy <robin.murphy@arm.com>
fourcc codes (and the drm fourcc codes) are supposed to be little-endian.
All of them. So either we fix up the drivers and userspace to set that
flag correctly (which would mean hdlcd should expose twice as many
formats, each one with the little and big endian mode).

Or we nuke the big endian flag from drm fourcc. Adding AMD folks who afaik
are the only other ones who ever cared about big endian in drm.
