Agreeing on a byte order for this interface makes sense, but I don't see
it documented anywhere. Is this an SMCCC thing? Because I skimmed some
of those specs and other users too but didn't see anything obvious. Anyway
even if everybody but me knows that all data returned from SMCCC calls
should be LE, it might be nice to document that in the pvtime doc.

Thanks,
