xfs: encode the rtbitmap in little endian format
Currently, the ondisk realtime bitmap file is accessed in units of 32-bit words. There's no endian translation of the contents of this file, which means that the Bad Things Happen(tm) if you go from (say) x86 to powerpc. Since we have a new feature flag, let's take the opportunity to enforce an endianness on the file. The natural format of a bitmap is (IMHO) little endian, because the byte offsets of the bitmap data should always increase in step with the information being indexed. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>
