We will default to the system's native endianness for the eepmisc value.
This may be overwritten by the actual calibration data. If it is not
overwritten we interpret the template data in it's native endianness,
meaning that no swapping is required.
I'm still skeptical about this one. What is the significance of "native
endianess" here? You are keying the endianess of the eeprom tables off the
way the CPU operates, but for a PCI device there is no correlation between
those two.
