On the exit path from the guest we check what type of interrupt we received

However, when running on a little endian system, this access is byte reversed.
So let's make sure to swizzle the bytes back again and virtuall make XICS
accesses big endian.

This is a paca field, not something mandated by PAPR or shared with
the guest, so why do we need to keep it BE? If you do make it BE,
don't you also need to fix kvmppc_get_xics_latch()?
Yikes. Yes. Thanks a lot for the catch!
