The raven_io_read() and raven_io_write() functions pass and
return values in little-endian format (since the IO op struct
is marked DEVICE_LITTLE_ENDIAN); however they were storing the
values in the buffer to pass to address_space_read/write()
in host-endian order, which meant that on big-endian hosts
the values were inadvertently reversed. Use the *_le_p()
accessors instead so that we are consistent regardless of
host endianness.
Strictly speaking the byte order of the buffer for
address_space_rw() is target byte order (which for PPC
will be BE) but it doesn't actually matter as long as we
are consistent about the marking on the IO op struct and
which stl_*_p().
This bug was probably introduced due to confusion caused by
the two different versions of ldl_p() and friends:
bswap.h defines versions meaning "host endianness access"
cpu-all.h defines versions meaning "target endianness access"
As a target-independent source file prep.c gets the bswap.h
versions; the very similar looking code in ioport.c is
compiled per-target and gets the cpu-all.h versions.

This fixes the endianness test failure on bigendian hosts.
HOWEVER I have not actually tested it with a guest :-)
and endianness issues are notoriously hard to reason about
correctly. Review appreciated.
RTH suggests that we rename the cpu-all.h ldl_p &c to
ldl_te_p() &c (for 'target endianness') to reduce confusion;
I agree but this probably also requires some auditing of
users to check for other mistaken uses and in any case is
2.1 material.
