66a9df34e3 sparc64: remove cast from output constraints in math asm statements
The following asm statements generated a sparse warning:

        asm("addcc \n\t" : "=r" (((USItype)(r2)))

warning: asm output is not an lvalue

When asking on the sparse mailing list Linus replyed:

"
Those casts to (USItype) are all pointless to begin with (since the
values are of that type already!) and they mean that the expression
isn't something you can assign to (lvalue).
"

In the math emulation code drop all casts in the output
parts of the asm statements.

This fixes a lot of "warning: asm output is not an lvalue" sparse
warnings in math_64.c.

13da9e200f Revert "endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER"
This reverts commit b3b77c8cae, which was
also totally broken (see commit 0d2daf5cc8 that reverted the crc32
version of it).  As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it causes problems on
big-endian machines:

The kernel has never had that crazy "__BYTE_ORDER == __LITTLE_ENDIAN"
model.  It's not how we do things, and it isn't how we _should_ do
things.  So don't go there.

b3b77c8cae endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER
Linux does not define __BYTE_ORDER in its endian header files which makes
some header files bend backwards to get at the current endian.  Lets
#define __BYTE_ORDER in big_endian.h/litte_endian.h to make it easier for
header files that are used in user space too.

In userspace the convention is that

  1. _both_ __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined,
  2. you have to test for e.g. __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.
