The rseq rseq_cs.ptr.{ptr32,padding} uapi endianness handling is
entirely wrong on 32-bit little endian: a preprocessor logic mistake
wrongly uses the big endian field layout on 32-bit little endian
architectures.
Fortunately, those ptr32 accessors were never used within the kernel,
and only meant as a convenience for user-space.
Remove those and replace the whole rseq_cs union by a __u64 type, as
this is the only thing really needed to express the ABI. Document how
32-bit architectures are meant to interact with this field.
Fixes: ec9c82e03a74 ("rseq: uapi: Declare rseq_cs field as union, update includes")
