Revert "endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER"
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This reverts commit b3b77c8, which was
also totally broken (see commit 0d2daf5 that reverted the crc32
version of it).  As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it causes problems on
big-endian machines:

> In file included from fs/jfs/jfs_types.h:33,
>                  from fs/jfs/jfs_incore.h:26,
>                  from fs/jfs/file.c:22:
> fs/jfs/endian24.h:36:101: warning: "__LITTLE_ENDIAN" is not defined

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.
