[PATCH 1/3] radeon/cik: Fix GFX IB test on Big-Endian

Patch #1 & #2 are Reviewed-by: Christian König <christian.koenig at amd.com>

For patch #3:

Couldn't we just in a loop go over all the dw in the IB and swap them 
after writing them? That would simplify the patch massively.

And line like the one below just look a bit odd to me:
>   	for (i = ib.length_dw; i < ib_size_dw; ++i)
> -		ib.ptr[i] = 0x0;
> +		ib.ptr[i] = cpu_to_le32(0x0);

Alternatively a helper function adding DW to an IB with swapping could 
do it as well.

Regards,
Christian.
