Subject: [ 25/84] sierra_net: Endianess bug fix.
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit 2120c52da6fe741454a60644018ad2a6abd957ac ]
I discovered I couldn't get sierra_net to work on a powerpc. Turns out
the firmware attribute check assumes the system is little endian and
hence fails because the attributes is a 16 bit value.
