Shame about the ifdef, but ARM_LE_OR_BE32(...) or ARM_NOT_BE8(...) seems too contrived to be practical... We could probably do bitfield clobber more neatly with BFI, but unfortunately v6 plain doesn't have that. Only v6T2 or v7 and later have it.

The fixup_pv_table assumes that the instructions are in the same endian configuration as the data, but when the CPU is running in BE8 the instructions stay in little-endian format. Make sure if CONFIG_CPU_ENDIAN_BE8 is set that we do all the alterations to the instructions taking in to account the LDR/STR will be swapping the data endian-ness. Since the code is only modifying a byte, we avoid dual-swapping the data, and just change the bits we clear and ORR in (in the case where the code is not thumb2). For thumb2, we add the necessary rev16 instructions to ensure that the instructions are processed in the correct format, as it was easier than re-writing the code to contain a mask and shift.
