Subject: [PATCH 2/4] modpost: detect endianness on run-time
Endianness is currently detected on compile-time, but we can defer this
until run-time. This change avoids re-executing scripts/mod/mk_elfconfig
even if modpost in the linux-headers package needs to be rebuilt for a
foreign architecture.
Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@...nel.org>
