We want to configure MPC8349E in little endian as some other PCI devices(DSPs) are operating in little endian.
Why should the fact that the DSPs over PCI being little endian impact how you run the 8349? All the u-boot and linux drivers deal with this for every PCI device I'm aware of and run the 8349 (and all PowerPC chips) in big-endian mode.
All access to the PCI device registers are wrapped in functions that do the proper byte swapping for you.
