That was my first version, but I found it difficult to read, when I mix 
#ifdef in a switch case.


or maybe something like the following would be better ?


  	switch (drm_fourcc) {
#ifdef _BIG_ENDIAN
  	case DRM_FORMAT_XRGB8888:
		format = VIRTIO_GPU_FORMAT_X8R8G8B8_UNORM;
  		break;
  	case DRM_FORMAT_ARGB8888:
		format = VIRTIO_GPU_FORMAT_A8R8G8B8_UNORM;
  		break;
#else
  	case DRM_FORMAT_XRGB8888:
		format = VIRTIO_GPU_FORMAT_B8G8R8X8_UNORM;
  		break;
  	case DRM_FORMAT_ARGB8888:
		format = VIRTIO_GPU_FORMAT_B8G8R8A8_UNORM;
  		break;
#endif
