Hi Babu,

This part looks fine, but I think we also need this one:

diff --git a/arch/microblaze/Makefile b/arch/microblaze/Makefile
index 740f2b82a182..1f6c486826a0 100644
--- a/arch/microblaze/Makefile
+++ b/arch/microblaze/Makefile

 CPUFLAGS-$(CONFIG_XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_USE_DIV) += -mno-xl-soft-div
 CPUFLAGS-$(CONFIG_XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_USE_BARREL) += -mxl-barrel-shift
 CPUFLAGS-$(CONFIG_XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_USE_PCMP_INSTR) += -mxl-pattern-compare
+CPUFLAGS-$(CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN) += -mbig-endian
+CPUFLAGS-$(CONFIG_LITTLE_ENDIAN) += -mlittle-endian

 CPUFLAGS-1 += $(call cc-option,-mcpu=v$(CPU_VER))


That way, we don't have to guess what the toolchain does, but rather
tell it to do whatever is configured, like we do for most other architectures.

Unfortunately we can't do the same thing on xtensa, as that no longer
supports the -mbig-endian/-mbig-endian flags in any recent gcc version
(a long time ago it had them, but they were removed along with many other
options).
