endianness annotations and fixes for olympic
* missing braces in !readl(...) & ...
* trivial endianness annotations
* in olympic_arb_cmd() the loop collecting fragments of
packet is b0rken on big-endian - we have
(next_ptr && (buf_ptr=olympic_priv->olympic_lap + ntohs(next_ptr)))
as condition and it should have swab16(), not ntohs() - it's host-endian
byteswapped, not big-endian. So if we get more than one fragment on big-endian
host, we get screwed.
This ntohs() got missed back when the rest of those had been switched
to swab16() in 2.4.0-test2-pre1 - at a guess, nobody had hit fragmented
packets during the testing of PPC fixes.
PS: Ken Aaker cc'd on assumption that he is the same guy who'd done the
original set of PPC fixes in olympic
