This is not exactly true. The configuration *registers* (magic value,
queue selector etc.) are always LE, yes. The configuration *space* (the
free-form stuff starting at 0x100) is still guest-endian.
The spec-in-works makes everything LE and the driver will most likely
get accessors for the config space. Rusty had a go at this a while ago:
