Hi Dave

I've tested this series in big-endian mode.
There is an issue within __create_xol_area() function.
It writes UPROBE_SWBP_INSN directly to memory, but UPROBE_SWBP_INSN
stores canonical opcode, which leads to a wrong instruction endianness
if CPU runs in BE.

I think the easies way to fix it without touching generic uprobes code
is to store opcode in native endianness in UPROBE_SWBP_INSN, and use
another macro for canonical form in ARM specific code.
Please check a diff below. With this diff plus addressed comment for
patch 14/15 plus fixed Ben's BE kprobes series I have uprobes working
on LE and BE.
