There are two places where the same endianness conversion

Let's factor this out into a static function.

Your two s-o-bs look a bit odd...

I would rephrase this a bit:
"Swap data contained in s390x big endian registers to little endian PCI
bars."
That makes it clear that this function is for a specialized use case.

Please add an extra empty line.
