Xu Kuohai aada476655 bpf, arm64: Fix bpf trampoline instruction endianness
The sparse tool complains as follows:

arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1684:16:
	warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types)
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1684:16:
	expected unsigned int [usertype] *branch
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1684:16:
	got restricted __le32 [usertype] *
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1700:52:
	error: subtraction of different types can't work (different base
	types)
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1734:29:
	warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types)
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1734:29:
	expected unsigned int [usertype] *
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1734:29:
	got restricted __le32 [usertype] *
arch/arm64/net/bpf_jit_comp.c:1918:52:
	error: subtraction of different types can't work (different base
	types)

This is because the variable branch in function invoke_bpf_prog and the
variable branches in function prepare_trampoline are defined as type
u32 *, which conflicts with ctx->image's type __le32 *, so sparse complains
when assignment or arithmetic operation are performed on these two
variables and ctx->image.

Since arm64 instructions are always little-endian, change the type of
these two variables to __le32 * and call cpu_to_le32() to convert
instruction to little-endian before writing it to memory. This is also
in line with emit() which internally does cpu_to_le32(), too.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
