DT does. You add the property 'little-endian' to indicate you should
do IO to the device using little endian.

NXP can synthesise the MDIO controller either big endian, or little
endian. So on some SoCs we need to tell the driver to talk to the
hardware using big endian accesses. On other SoCs we need to tell the
driver to talk to the hardware using little endian.

Is there a standard way in ACPI to describe this?
