endian: Always evaluate arguments.
Changeset 7fa897b91a3ea0f16c2873b869d7a0eef05acff4 ("ide: trivial sparse annotations") created an IDE bootup regression on big-endian systems. In drivers/ide/ide-iops.c, function ide_fixstring() we now have the loop: for (p = end ; p != s;) be16_to_cpus((u16 *)(p -= 2)); which will never terminate on big-endian because in such a configuration be16_to_cpus() evaluates to "do { } while (0)" Therefore, always evaluate the arguments to nop endian transformation operations.
