Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] Bluetooth: qca: fix device-address endianness

The WCN6855 firmware on the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s expects the Bluetooth
device address in big-endian order when setting it using the
EDL_WRITE_BD_ADDR_OPCODE command.

Presumably, this is the case for all non-ROME devices which all use the
EDL_WRITE_BD_ADDR_OPCODE command for this (unlike the ROME devices which
use a different command and expect the address in little-endian order).

Reverse the little-endian address before setting it to make sure that
the address can be configured using tools like btmgmt or using the
'local-bd-address' devicetree property.

Note that this can potentially break systems with boot firmware which
has started relying on the broken behaviour and is incorrectly passing
the address via devicetree in big-endian order.

Personally, I'd prefer it if you didn't break bisectability with your
series. As it is, if someone applies just the first 3 patches they'll
end up with broken Bluetooth.

IMO the order should be:
1. Binding (currently patch #1)
2. Trogdor dt patch, which won't hurt on its own (currently patch #5)
3. Bluetooth subsystem patch handling the quirk (currently patch #2)
4. Qualcomm change to fix the endianness and handle the quirk squashed
into 1 patch (currently patch #3 + #4)

..and the patch that changes the Qualcomm driver should make it
obvious that it depends on the trogdor DT patch in the change
description.

With patches #3 and #4 combined, feel free to add my Reviewed-by tag
as both patches look fine to me.
