[PATCH] kbuffer: fix endianness flags for big-endian host

[PATCH] kbuffer: fix endianness flags for big-endian host

[Bastien Curutchet]

When KBUFFER_ENDIAN_SAME_AS_HOST is set on a big-endian host, the
KBUFFER_FL_BIG_ENDIAN flag is added to the local flags variable instead
of the kbuf->flags. Since the local flags variable has already been
copied to kbuf->flags at that time, the KBUFFER_FL_BIG_ENDIAN flag is
lost when we leave the function.

Add KBUFFER_FL_BIG_ENDIAN to the kbuf->flags when
KBUFFER_ENDIAN_SAME_AS_HOST is used on a big-endian host.
