Yes, I wanted to first hear back from Amit whether he liked the new
commit message, but seeing as he hasn't yet replied I'll just post it
now. I've confirmed that the endianness handling is necessary, but not
implementated. I've looked all the way down into hvc_console() up until
tty_do_resize(), but there are no endianess adjustments up until that
point aka I'm pretty certain the endianness is broken.

I'll post my v2 without the endianness fix then
