As I previously reported, "ppc64: purgatory: Reset primary cpu endian to big-
endian" breaks book3e, so can http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/527048/ be 
considered for this release?

Yes of course, sorry for not taking more note of that.

Would it be possible to get a review, e.g. from Michael?

I pinged Michael again on the original patch, and CCed him and Samuel and the 
PPC list here.  If they still don't respond, and you still don't want to put 
the fix in without their input, then could you revert the broken patch?
