Commit a304e2d82a8c3 ("ppc64: purgatory: Reset primary cpu endian to big-endian) changed bctr to rfid. rfid is book3s-only and will cause a fatal exception on book3e. Purgatory is an isolated environment which makes importing information about the subarch awkward, so instead rely on the fact that MSR_LE should never be set on book3e, and the rfid is only needed if MSR_LE is set (and thus needs to be cleared). In theory that MSR bit is reserved on book3e, rather than zero, but in practice I have not seen it set.
