scsi: fc: use get/put_unaligned64 for wwn access

A bug in the gcc-6.0 prerelease version caused at least one
driver (lpfc) to have excessive stack usage when dealing with
wwn data, on the ARM architecture.

lpfc_scsi.c: In function 'lpfc_find_next_oas_lun':
lpfc_scsi.c:117:1: warning: the frame size of 1152 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

I have reported this as a gcc regression in
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70232

However, using a better implementation of wwn_to_u64() not only
helps with the particular gcc problem but also leads to better
object code for any version or architecture.

The kernel already provides get_unaligned_be64() and
put_unaligned_be64() helper functions that provide an
optimized implementation with the desired semantics.

The lpfc_find_next_oas_lun() function in the example that
grew from 1146 bytes to 5144 bytes when moving from gcc-5.3
to gcc-6.0 is now 804 bytes, as the optimized
get_unaligned_be64() load can be done in three instructions.
The stack usage is now down to 28 bytes from 128 bytes with
gcc-5.3 before.
