The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure,
flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call.
While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness
of the data is not.  This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list
is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts.

Tom,

In validate_flash rtas call returns update_results in BE.. I think we need below changes as well.

Rest looks good.
