Normal architectures:
- Big endian: avr32, frv, m68k, openrisc, parisc, s390, sparc
- Little endian: alpha, blackfin, cris, hexagon, ia64, metag, mn10300,
score, unicore32, x86
- Choose in config time: arc, arm, arm64, c6x, m32r, mips, powerpc, sh
Special architectures:
- Deside by compiler: microblaze, tile, xtensa.
- Deside by building host: um
- Next, need improve Kbuild to probe endian to deside whether need mark

I've tested this part and it doesn't select neither CPU_BIG_ENDIAN, nor CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN. And looking into the Kconfig/Kbuild I cound't find anything related to __BUILDING_TIME_BIG_ENDIAN__. Am I missing something? -- Thanks. -- Max
