BPF_TARGET_ENDIAN is used in CLANG_BPF_BUILD_RULE and co macros.
It is defined as a recursively expanded variable, meaning that it is
recomputed each time the value is needed. Thus, it is recomputed for
each *.bpf.o file compilation. The variable is computed by running a C
compiler in a shell. This significantly hinders parallel build
performance for *.bpf.o files.
This commit changes BPF_TARGET_ENDIAN to be a simply expanded
variable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
