[PATCH 18/18] powerpc: Fix jiffies variable on little endian

From: Ian Munsie <hidden>
Date: 2010-10-01 07:07:06
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

From: Ian Munsie <redacted>

The vmlinux linker script sets the jiffies variable to the low word of
the jiffies_64 variable. This patch corrects which word is used on
little endian.
