Unfortunately, I think this won't work.

At least on sparc, the __raw_*() variants also change the endianness to
native endianness.

PowerPC does this as well, even documented in a comment :-)

/*
 * Non ordered and non-swapping "raw" accessors
 */

Only the non-__raw_ variants do the endianness swap to/from
little-endian.
