SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/2] firewire: endianess fix

According to ohci1394.c, it selfIDs and headers of incoming packets are
not byte-swapped by the old Apple Uninorth FireWire part. And no,
firewire-ohci doesn't have the workaround yet.

It should be trivial to copy'n'paste ohci1394's workaround into fw-ohci,
but it would be good if someone could test before and after.

BTW, since that code is touched everytime a packet is received, we
should enclose such a workaround in #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_PMAC &&
CONFIG_PPC32, shouldn't we? (As a second step after adding the workaround.)
