    arm64: fix endianness annotation in aarch64_insn_read() · 65de1421
    Luc Van Oostenryck authored
    The function arch64_insn_read() is used to read an instruction.
    On AM64 instructions are always stored in little-endian order
    and thus the function correctly do a little-to-native endian
    conversion to the value just read.
    
    However, the variable used to hold the value before the conversion
    is not declared for a little-endian value but for a native one.
    
    Fix this by using the correct type for the declaration: __le32
    
    Note: This only works because the function reading the value,
          probe_kernel_read((), takes a void pointer and void pointers
          are endian-agnostic. Otherwise probe_kernel_read() should
          also be properly annotated (or worse, need to be specialized).
