ARM: set --be8 when linking modules
To avoid having to make every text section swap the instruction order of all instructions, make sure modules are built also built with --be8 (as is the current kernel final link). If we do not do this, we would end up having to swap all instructions when loading a module, instead of just the instructions that we are applying ELF relocations to.
