vfio: Make BARs native endian
Slow BAR access path is used when VFIO fails to mmap() BAR. Since this is just a transport between the guest and a device, there is no need to do endianness swapping. This changes BARs to use native endianness. Since non-ROM BARs were doing byte swapping, we need to remove it so does the patch. As the result, this eliminates cancelling byte swaps and there is no change in behavior for non-ROM BARs. ROM BARs were declared little endian too but byte swapping was not implemented for them so they never actually worked on big endian systems as there was no cancelling byte swap. This fixes endiannes for ROM BARs by declaring them native endian and only fixing access sizes as it is done for non-ROM BARs.
