I hope you do not insist on that?

The code is using same primitives to add/xor/permute with data from
these arrays (buffer512[] and C[], those which use cpu_to_le64), and
from generic data buffers. Having these arrays in native endianness will
cause complexities - code split and duplications. For example, XLPS
permutation will require two versions, with one accessing (y) as is and
another as cpu_to_le64(y).

The code is based on canonical implementation by RFC 6986 ("GOST R
34.11-2012: Hash Function") author, and I don't want it do deviate that
much from the original, which would complicate algorithm reviews.

Thanks,
