You already have r0=0, so you can just do

	lvsr byteswap,0,r0
	vnot byteswap,byteswap

(the top bits of the permute vector bytes aren't used after all).

Or if you find that distasteful,

	lvsl byteswap,0,r0
	vspltisb v0,15
	vxor byteswap,byteswap,v0

Btw, the value in r3 isn't used after this, that last addi is useless?

Expensive?  Ha!

	vgbbd v0,v0
	vperm v0,v0,v0,byteswap
	vgbbd v0,v0
	vperm v0,v0,v0,byteswap
	vsldoi v0,v0,v0,8

(or fold these last two together, needs another constant though).

That VPERM looks strange...  You probably want v0 instead of v16.  Not
that it matters here.
