PATCH 1/1 epic100: Test __BIG_ENDIAN instead of (non-existent) CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN

Probably no one has used this driver on big-endian systems, since it was setting up descriptor swapping if CONFIG_BIG_ENDIAN is set, which it never is, since that symbol is not mentioned anywhere else in the kernel source. Switch this test to a check for __BIG_ENDIAN so it has a chance at working.
