Great.  I forwarded it to Greg, so I hope the next batch of USB
patches will include this.

I'd rather see that stuff in the usb/host/Kconfig (even for PS3)
to minimize the number of things that don't make sense without
reading arch-specific code.  If it gets to messy we can revisit
that ... but these big-endian things don't seem that common.
