This abstraction makes no sense whatsoever, you already have
io{read,write}32{be,} to deal with the correct endian, and you can use
the standard Device Tree properties 'big-endian', 'little-endian',
'native-endian' to decide which of those of to use. If you need to
introduce a wrapper or indirect function calls to select the correct I/O
accessor, that is fine of course.
