[ Upstream commit 345dac33f58894a56d17b92a41be10e16585ceff ]
When configuring the kernel for big-endian, we set either BE-8 or BE-32 based on the CPU architecture level. Until linux-4.4, we did not have any ARMv7-M platform allowing big-endian builds, but now i.MX/Vybrid is in that category, adn we get a build error because of this:
arch/arm/kernel/module-plts.c: In function 'get_module_plt': arch/arm/kernel/module-plts.c:60:46: error: implicit declaration of function '__opcode_to_mem_thumb32' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
This comes down to picking the wrong default, ARMv7-M uses BE8 like ARMv7-A does. Changing the default gets the kernel to compile and presumably works.
