Other arches may want to use this to get consistent fixed endian output.

You will have to grab it quickly!

drops that definition as part of ripping out arm64 big endian support.

Ah, well easy conflict resolution then :)

When I was doing this I was really doubting why it had to be endian
specific, this is mostly a cargo cult from the other stuff that was
already working that way..

I'm personally skeptical any arch could have either EFI stub a
different endianess than the vmlinux, it seems like nonsense on alot
of levels.

So, I will remove the fixed endian pieces from here? Does anyone think
otherwise?

Thanks,
