Subject: [PATCH 1/2] arch: Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all fixed big endian archs

While working on enabling queued rwlock on SPARC, found
this following code in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h
which uses CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to clear a byte.

static inline u8 *__qrwlock_write_byte(struct qrwlock *lock)
 {
	return (u8 *)lock + 3 * IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN);
 }

Problem is many of the fixed big endian architectures dont define
CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and clears the wrong byte.

Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all the fixed big endian architecture.

Here is the orinal discussion
