Physical TPMs use Open Firmware Device Tree bindings that are similar
to the IBM Power virtual TPM to support event log. However, these
properties store the values in different endianness for Physical
and Virtual TPM.

This patch fixes the endianness issue by doing appropriate conversion
based on Physical or Virtual TPM.

Maybe just base and size?

Hmm.. okay to keep names short, I can change to base/size. And since they are used within log function, probably it is implicit that, these refer to Log base address and size.

Why did you change the first parameter?

Hmm.. yeah..shouldn't be. Sorry, I think while redoing, I mixed up with my previous versions. Will change it.
Thanks for noticing it.
