The code patching code wants to get the value of a struct ppc_inst as a u64 when the instruction is prefixed, so we can pass the u64 down to __put_user_asm() and write it with a single store.
This is a bit awkward because the value differs based on the CPU endianness, so add a helper to do the conversion.
