Subject: [PATCH 06/12] arm64: assembler: Remove endianness helper macros
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2026 15:01:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260811140132.22778-7-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260811140132.22778-1-will@kernel.org>

The CPU_LE()/CPU_BE() helper macros are only used by head.S. Since
big-endian support depends on BROKEN, remove the last users along with
the macro definitions. The unused regs_to_64() assembly macro, which
somewhat bizarrely behaves differently depend on the endianness, is also
removed.
