It's complicated :)
These were originally specified as little-endian because it _worked_,
but that was only because of an issue with the code - it was getting
byteswapped twice.
This was "fixed" in commit 29bb45f25ff3051354ed330c0d0f10418a2b8c7c,
and I assume this DT file was created/copied before that commit and
didn't get that update due to merge delays. So after that commit, this
file couldn't have worked, but that's how it got to this point.
