This fixes some minor cases where u32 or unsigned int types were used to store big-endian data, and __be32 types used to store both big-endian and cpu-endian data. This was producing sparse warnings. Most cases resulted from using the same variable to hold the big-endian value and its converted cpu-endian value. These can be simply fixed by introducing another local variable, or avoiding storing the intermediate value back into the original variable. One special case is the raw_buf used in the compressed streams to transfer data from DSP to user-side. The endian conversion happens in-place (as there's no point introducing another buffer) so a cast to (__be32 *) is added when passing it to wm_adsp_read_raw_data_block().

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 Restructured Text 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.
