+The RedBoot boot loader writes flash partition tables containing native
+byte sex 32 bit values.  When booting an opposite byte sex kernel (e.g.  an
+LE kernel from BE RedBoot) the current MTD driver fails to handle the
+partition table and therefore is unable to generate the correct partition
+map for the flash.
+
+The patch recognises that the FIS directory (the partition table) is
+byte-reversed by examining the partition table size, which is known to be
+one erase block (this is an assumption made elsewhere in redboot.c).  If
+the size matches the erase block after byte swapping the value then
+byte-reversal is assumed, if not no further action is taken.  The patched
+code is fail safe; should redboot.c be changed to support a partition table
+with a modified size field the test will fail and the partition table will
+be assumed to have the host byte sex.
+
+If byte-reversal is detected the patch byte swaps the remainder of the 32
+bit fields in the copy of the table; this copy is then used to set up the
+MTD partition map.
