Revert "endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER"
This reverts commit b3b77c8caef1750ebeea1054e39e358550ea9f55, which was also totally broken (see commit 0d2daf5cc858 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.
