Re: possible bug in powerpc LE compat syscalls with 64-bit args

Reviewing what other platforms do, it seems like powerpc compat mode may
have the opposite problem in little-endian mode, since arguments are passed
in "hi, lo" order unconditionally in arch/powerpc/kernel/sys_ppc32.c.
PPC32 is always big-endian.
