commit 44e8241c51f762aafa50ed116da68fd6ecdcc954 upstream.
On big endian arm kernels, the arm optimized Curve25519 code produces
incorrect outputs and fails the Curve25519 test. This has been true
ever since this code was added.
It seems that hardly anyone (or even no one?) actually uses big endian
arm kernels. But as long as they're ostensibly supported, we should
disable this code on them so that it's not accidentally used.
Note: for future-proofing, use !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN instead of
CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN. Both of these are arch-specific options that could
get removed in the future if big endian support gets dropped.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
