The change to encrypt a fifth ChaCha block using scalar instructions
caused the chacha20-neon, xchacha20-neon, and xchacha12-neon self-tests
to start failing on big endian arm64 kernels. The bug is that the
keystream block produced in 32-bit scalar registers is directly XOR'd
with the data words, which are loaded and stored in native endianness.
Thus in big endian mode the data bytes end up XOR'd with the wrong
bytes. Fix it by byte-swapping the keystream words in big endian mode.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
