serial_core: support native endianness
There are three natural ways in which devices may be wired to the system: little endian (device receives correctly ordered bits of a word written by little-endian CPU to its register, but big-endian CPU needs to swap bytes of a word before writing it), big endian (same, but with big-endian CPU in more favourable position) and native endian (CPU of either endianness may do word-sized I/O without need for byteswapping). Adding an option for native endianness allows using single kernel command line for boards with native-endian serial ports on bi-endian architectures. This goes in parallel with 'native-endian' DTS attribute. Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
