arm64: compat Fix siginfo_t -> compat_siginfo_t conversion on big endian

Browse Source 
commit 9d42d48a34 upstream.

The native (64-bit) sigval_t union contains sival_int (32-bit) and
sival_ptr (64-bit). When a compat application invokes a syscall that
takes a sigval_t value (as part of a larger structure, e.g.
compat_sys_mq_notify, compat_sys_timer_create), the compat_sigval_t
union is converted to the native sigval_t with sival_int overlapping
with either the least or the most significant half of sival_ptr,
depending on endianness. When the corresponding signal is delivered to a
compat application, on big endian the current (compat_uptr_t)sival_ptr
cast always returns 0 since sival_int corresponds to the top part of
sival_ptr. This patch fixes copy_siginfo_to_user32() so that sival_int
is copied to the compat_siginfo_t structure.
