[RFC PATCH] kernel: add -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ by default

From: Harvey Harrison
Date: Wed Feb 18 2009 - 16:33:19 EST


The noise level with endian checking is getting to the point where
having this enabled by default wouldn't be too bad. If this were to
go in for the 2.6.30 devel cycle it may motivate the last sections that
are still particularly noisy (sound/, drivers/scsi/ come to mind)
