The MPIC code checks for a "big-endian" property and sets the flag MPIC_BIG_ENDIAN if one is present. Unfortunately, the PowerQUICC-III compatible device-tree does not specify it, so all of the board ports need to manually set that flag when calling mpic_alloc(). Document the flag and add it to the pq3 device tree. Existing code will still need to pass the MPIC_BIG_ENDIAN flag because their dtb may not have this property, but new platforms shouldn't need to do so.
