compiler_types: add Endianness-dependent __counted_by_{le, be}
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2078038 Some structures contain flexible arrays at the end and the counter for them, but the counter has explicit Endianness and thus __counted_by() can't be used directly. To increase test coverage for potential problems without breaking anything, introduce __counted_by_{le,be}() defined depending on platform's Endianness to either __counted_by() when applicable or noop otherwise. Maybe it would be a good idea to introduce such attributes on compiler level if possible, but for now let's stop on what we have. Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Acked-by: Gustavo A. R.
