ARM: alignment: correctly decode instructions in BE8 mode.
If we are in BE8 mode, we must deal with the instruction stream being in LE order when data is being loaded in BE order. Ensure the data is swapped before processing to avoid thre following: Change to using <asm/opcodes.h> to provide the necessary conversion functions to change the byte ordering. This stops the following warning messages from the kernel on a fault: Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x001) at 0xbfa09567 Alignment trap: not handling instruction 030091e8 at [<80333e8c>] Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben.dooks@codethink.co.uk> Reviewed-by: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com> Tested-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
