Subject: [PATCH] lib/crypto: arm/curve25519: Disable on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN

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.
