Convert CPU reset vector address to LE to support big-endian kernel.

Naively this sounds a little odd; the value here is in a CPU register all the
time, not in memory, so I'm not sure why endianness is relevant? Presumably the
CPU doesn't end up byte-swapping values in registers when running in BE mode or
it takes an SMC? If it does, why don't we need
cpu_to_le32(TF_SET_CPU_BOOT_ADDR_SMC) too?

Sorry if this is a silly question; I haven't followed any of the BE kernel patches.

You absolutely right. I goofed it by replacing 'smc' with 'str' without adding reg reverse for BE when was testing and then blindly made patch. Please ignore it and sorry for the noise.
