[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN name confusion

I've noticed that VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN in drivers/cfb_console.c is
not really well named.  What it does is swap bytes around if the frame
buffer has a /different/ endianness from the host.  If you start with
a little endian host and frame buffer and define
VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN the drawn colors get incorrectly byte swapped.

the attached patch changes VIDEO_FB_LITTLE_ENDIAN to
VIDEO_FB_OTHER_ENDIAN to make it clearer what it does.
