[PATCH 2/2] perf jit: genelf makes assumptions about endian

From: Anton Blanchard <anton at samba.org>

Commit 9b07e27f88b9 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support")
incorrectly assumed that PowerPC is big endian only.

Simplify things by consolidating the define of GEN_ELF_ENDIAN and checking
for __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

The PowerPC checks were also incorrect, they do not match what gcc
emits. We should first look for __powerpc64__, then __powerpc__.
