mm: kfence: fix false positives on big endian
Since commit 1ba3cbf3 ("mm: kfence: improve the performance of __kfence_alloc() and __kfence_free()"), kfence reports failures in random places at boot on big endian machines. The problem is that the new KFENCE_CANARY_PATTERN_U64 encodes the address of each byte in its value, so it needs to be byte swapped on big endian machines. The compiler is smart enough to do the le64_to_cpu() at compile time, so there is no runtime overhead.
