[PATCH] compat: Fix endian issue in union sigval

[Zhang Jian(Bamvor)]

In 64bit architecture, sigval_int is the high 32bit of sigval_ptr in
big endian kernel compare with low 32bit of sigval_ptr in little
endian kernel. reference:

    typedef union sigval {
        int sival_int;
        void *sival_ptr;
    } sigval_t;

During compat_mq_notify or compat_timer_create, kernel get sigval
from user space by reading sigval.sival_int. This is correct in 32 bit
kernel and in 64bit little endian kernel. And It is wrong in 64bit big
endian kernel:
It get the high 32bit of sigval_ptr and put it to low 32bit of
sigval_ptr. And the high 32bit sigval_ptr in empty in arm 32bit user
space struct. So, kernel lost the value of sigval_ptr.

The following patch get the sigval_ptr in stead of sigval_int in order
to avoid endian issue.
Test pass in arm64 big endian and little endian kernel.
