Just to keep my curiosity satisfied - what's the reason to use
big-endian on ARM?

Good luck with fixing the kernel and userspace codes, which usually
assume little-endian is the only possible order!

This warning can be removed. There is no way to force SYSMMU to operate with
big-endian PTEs according to the datasheet.
