Subject: [PATCH v2] fscrypt: fix derivation of SipHash keys on big endian CPUs

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

Typically, the cryptographic APIs that fscrypt uses take keys as byte
arrays, which avoids endianness issues.  However, siphash_key_t is an
exception.  It is defined as 'u64 key[2];', i.e. the 128-bit key is
expected to be given directly as two 64-bit words in CPU endianness.

fscrypt_derive_dirhash_key() and fscrypt_setup_iv_ino_lblk_32_key()
forgot to take this into account.  Therefore, the SipHash keys used to
index encrypted+casefolded directories differ on big endian vs. little
endian platforms, as do the SipHash keys used to hash inode numbers for
IV_INO_LBLK_32-encrypted directories.  This makes such directories
non-portable between these platforms.

Fix this by always using the little endian order.  This is a breaking
change for big endian platforms, but this should be fine in practice
since these features (encrypt+casefold support, and the IV_INO_LBLK_32
flag) aren't known to actually be used on any big endian platforms yet.

Fixes: aa408f835d02 ("fscrypt: derive dirhash key for casefolded directories")
Fixes: e3b1078bedd3 ("fscrypt: add support for IV_INO_LBLK_32 policies")

v2: Fixed fscrypt_setup_iv_ino_lblk_32_key() too, not just
    fscrypt_derive_dirhash_key().
