Note that this may or may not be correct...  the bus_read_X macros
do endian conversion if the bus is of different endianness than the
processor arch...  So if the device is on a PCI bus, and the machine
is sparc64, the bus_read_X will already be swapped as necessary... If
you don't want the byte swapping to be done for you, there are the
_stream versions...  The are useful for transfering data like disk
data that needs to maintain the same order...
