[PATCH v3 1/1] target/ppc: don't byte swap ELFv2 signal handler |

From: Vincent Fazio <address@hidden>
Previously, the signal handler would be byte swapped if the target and
host CPU used different endianness. This would cause a SIGSEGV when
attempting to translate the opcode pointed to by the swapped address.
Thread 1 "qemu-ppc64" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The signal handler will be byte swapped as a result of the __get_user()
call in sigaction() if it is necessary, no additional swap is required.

Changes since v2:
- Explain why the swap is not necessary
Changes since v1:
- Drop host/target endianness callouts
- Drop unnecessary pointer cast
- Clarify commit message
