Well, maybe it not as complex as it likes, just relatively:

For some drivers that may support the following cases:

For the DT node:

CPU        Dev        LE/BE property need ?
----------------------------------------------
LE         LE         No
LE         BE         'big-endian' property
BE         BE         No
BE         LE         'little-endian' property

The driver will adapt to this too.

Thanks :)

Xiubo
