admittedly this really hurts my brain, but I think there's actually no
problem with endianness: whatever comes in mmio->data will have native
endianness and the vgic is always little-endian, so a guest would have
to make sure to do its own endianness conversion before writing data,
or did I get this backwards? (some nasty feeling about if the OS is
compiled in another endianness than the hardware everything may
break).

Anyhow, I think there's another bug in this code though. Please take a
look and see if you agree:

    KVM: ARM: Limit vgic read/writes to load/store length

    The vgic read/write operations did not consider ldrb/strb masks, and
    would therefore unintentionally overwrite parts of a register.

    Consider for example a store of a single byte to a word-aligned address
    of one of the priority registers, that would cause the 3 most
    significant bytes to be overwritten with zeros.
