[PATCH] ehea: bugfix for register access functions

Browse Source 
Hi Jeff,

sorry to bother you again. We figured out that the readq function we
included in the eHEA patch we sent yesterday to access eHEA registers
is defined as little endian on POWER. This collides with our adapter.
We talked to some PPC people who told us there is a discussion going
on about new access functions. We were told to use __raw_readq /
__raw_writeq for now.

This patch fixes this bug found by our internal tests today.
Please apply this small patch on the latest patch we sent you yesterday.
If it is easier for you I can also give you the entire eHEA patch again.

sorry and thanks a lot,
Jan-Bernd
