Call out usability on big-endian machines specifically here.

I added this to v3.14/gpio branch of my tree (with modifications I mentioned above).
I dont think there are dependencies for this particular patch though (applies and builds nicely on latest Linus T's tree). Even then, there are too many GPIO patches floating around and I think it is better for me to collect them for a while and if there really are no platform code dependencies overall, I can probably hand that branch off to Linus W. We will see.
Thanks, Sekhar
