[PATCH 11/13] tools/perf: Fix the mask in regs_dump__printf and print_sample_iregs

When decoding the perf_regs mask in regs_dump__printf(),
we loop through the mask using find_first_bit and find_next_bit functions.
"mask" is of type "u64", but sent as a "unsigned long *" to
lib functions along with sizeof().

While the exisitng code works fine in most of the case,
the logic is broken when using a 32bit perf on a 64bit kernel (Big Endian).
When reading u64 using (u32 *)(&val)[0], perf (lib/find_*_bit()) assumes it gets
lower 32bits of u64 which is wrong. Proposed fix is to swap the words
of the u64 to handle this case. This is _not_ endianess swap.
