I blindly copied the same behaviour from ByteBuffer.order:

public final ByteBuffer order(ByteOrder bo) {
     bigEndian = (bo == ByteOrder.BIG_ENDIAN);
     nativeByteOrder =
         (bigEndian == (Bits.byteOrder() == ByteOrder.BIG_ENDIAN));
     return this;
}

Was that behaviour intentional or an oversight? I am assuming the latter as 
it’s ambiguous what should happen if a third value, null, is passed.
I would assume so too.



I updated the webrev in place to throw an NPE.
Okay.



BTW: Is there a reason for "throws IllegalArgumentException"? This an unchecked 
so I assume not needed there (the @throws in the javadoc should be sufficient).

I retained consistency with existing MH factory methods.

Okay although I assume it could be dropped elsewhere.
