0 || BYTE_REVERSE(MS(EA,2))
An effective address (EA) is formed by adding an index to a base address. The index is the contents of
register RB. The base address is 0 if the RA field is 0 and is the contents of register RA otherwise.
The halfword at the EA is byte-reversed from the default byte ordering for the memory page referenced by the
EA. The resulting halfword is extended to 32 bits by concatenating 16 0-bits to its left. The result is placed into
register RT.
If instruction bit 31 contains 1, the contents of CR[CR0] are undefined.

Programming Note
Byte ordering is generally controlled by the Endian (E) storage attribute (see Memory Management on
page 133). The load byte reverse instructions provide a mechanism for data to be loaded from a memory
page using the opposite byte ordering from that specified by the Endian storage attribute.
