This patch aims to get rid of endianness in queued_write_unlock(). We
want to set  __qrwlock->wmode to NULL, however the address is not
&lock->cnts in big endian machine. That causes queued_write_unlock()
write NULL to the wrong field of __qrwlock.

Actually qrwlock can have same layout, IOW we can remove the #if
__little_endian in struct __qrwlock. With such modification, we only
need define some _QW* and _QR* with corresponding values in different
endian systems.
