The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure,
flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call.
While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness
of the data is not. This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list
is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts.
