For the "backward wiring case" your data port will always be the opposite
endian as your host. For the "correct wiring" case, the data port will always
be the same endian as your host.
So the correct wiring case (the one using ioread16/iowrite16 for registers),
the data port should just use ioread16_rep.
For the other case, you need some ifdef'ery or raw variants with home made
barriers, or a bounce buffer.
