In my book it is not a question of drivers, but a matter of shared structures and the issue that in this case address and data endianess should be the same.
I.e. if a big endian application points (BE data format) to 0x00000004 on ARM in BE mode will it get exec base or will it get some arbitrary value, because the address format may still be LE?
If the ARM chips in question don't offer a "full" big endian environment there's not much benefit over x86 IHMO.
This question (the exec one) was raised several times already and yet nobody answered it.

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
