[PATCH v2] nvme-pci: fix doorbell buffer value endianness

From: Klaus Jensen <k.jensen at samsung.com>

When using shadow doorbells, the event index and the doorbell values are
written to host memory. Prior to this patch, the values written would
erroneously be written in host endianness. This causes trouble on
big-endian platforms. Fix this by adding missing endian conversions.

This issue was noticed by Guenter while testing various big-endian
platforms under QEMU[1]. A similar fix required for hw/nvme in QEMU is
up for review as well[2].
