powerpc: Make 64-bit non-VMX __copy_tofrom_user bi-endian The powerpc 64-bit __copy_tofrom_user() function uses shifts to handle unaligned invocations. However, these shifts were designed for big-endian systems: On little-endian systems, they must shift in the opposite direction. This commit relies on the C preprocessor to insert the correct shifts into the assembly code. [ This is a rare but nasty LE issue. Most of the time we use the POWER7 optimised __copy_tofrom_user_power7 loop, but when it hits an exception we fall back to the base __copy_tofrom_user loop. - Anton ] Signed-off-by: Paul E.
