sata_promise: fix endianess bug in ASIC PRD bug workaround
The original workaround for the Promise ASIC PRD bug contained an endianess bug which I failed to detect: the adjustment of the last PRD entry's length field applied host arithmetic to little-endian data, which is incorrect on big-endian machines. We have the length available in host-endian format, so do the adjustment on host-endian data and then convert and store it in the PRD entry's little-endian data field. Thanks to an anonymous reviewer for detecting this bug. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
