crypto: ecc - handle unaligned input buffer in ecc_swap_digits

ecdsa_set_pub_key() makes an u64 pointer at 1 byte offset of the key.
This results in an unaligned u64 pointer. This pointer is passed to
ecc_swap_digits() which assumes natural alignment.

This causes a kernel crash on an armv7 platform:
[    0.409022] Unhandled fault: alignment exception (0x001) at 0xc2a0a6a9
...
[    0.416982] PC is at ecdsa_set_pub_key+0xdc/0x120
...
[    0.491492] Backtrace:
[    0.492059] [<c07c266c>] (ecdsa_set_pub_key) from [<c07c75d4>] (test_akcipher_one+0xf4/0x6c0)

Handle unaligned input buffer in ecc_swap_digits() by replacing
be64_to_cpu() to get_unaligned_be64(). Change type of in pointer to
void to reflect it doesn’t necessarily need to be aligned.

Fixes: 4e660291 ("crypto: ecdsa - Add support for ECDSA signature verification")
