#1436016 — [PATCH] perf/core: Fix the mask in perf_output_sample_regs

When decoding the perf_regs mask in perf_output_sample_regs(),
we loop through the mask using find_first_bit and find_next_bit functions.
While the exisitng code works fine in most of the case,
the logic is broken for 32bit kernel (Big Endian).
When reading u64 mask using (u32 *)(&val)[0], find_*_bit() assumes it gets
lower 32bits of u64 but instead gets upper 32bits which is wrong.
Proposed fix is to swap the words of the u64 to handle this case.
This is _not_ endianness swap.

Waiting a bit for more acks, as IIRC several other people had comments
on this patch, ok?
