Ok, then bus_space(9) don't have to take care of the endian.

But there are still some problem. We should do swapping on:

1) read/write values in different size stream from the target value size
  (u_int8_t structure members in u_int16_t stream, etc.)

2) passing non-stream values to/from the device via DMA
  (see /sys/dev/pci/pcscp.c, PR kern/7279 etc.)

Anyway, many files in /sys/dev/{pci,ic}/ have `#if BYTE_ORDER == ...'
ifdefs.
