Sorry, it is wrong.  It of course should be __BIG_ENDIAN

The new byteorder headers only uses this if no __arch_swab64 is defined.

Further down in the parisc version, an __arch_swab64 is defined in the
BITS_PER_LONG >=32 case, making this moot.

>>From the new linux/swab.h:

static inline __attribute_const__ __u64 ___swab64(__u64 val)
{
#ifdef __arch_swab64
	return __arch_swab64(val);
#elif defined(__arch_swab64p)
	return __arch_swab64p(&val);
#elif defined(__SWAB_64_THRU_32__)
	__u32 h = val >> 32;
	__u32 l = val & ((1ULL << 32) - 1);
	return (((__u64)___swab32(l)) << 32) | ((__u64)(___swab32(h)));
#else
	return __const_swab64(val);
#endif
}

Other than the endianness, any other concerns?
