I think we can give it another try when https://reviews.freebsd.org/D36838 is
merged.

And, is the hypervisor (VMware in this context) responsible to process the
endianness ?
> vcpuHint has been expanded to 16 bit on host side to enable interruptions to be routed to more CPUs.
On big-endian system, this seems break the vcpuHint function if guest side is
not aligned with the change.
