Hi!
The big-endian _BitInt support in libgcc was written without any
testing and so I haven't discovered I've made one mistake in it
(in multiple places).
The bitint_reduce_prec function attempts to optimize inputs
which have some larger precision but at runtime they are found
to need smaller number of limbs.
For little-endian that is handled just by returning smaller
precision (or negative precision for signed), but for
big-endian we need to adjust the passed in limb pointer so that
when it returns smaller precision the argument still contains
the least significant limbs for the returned precision.
Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and i686-linux (where it
doesn't do anything) and tested with all the _BitInt related
tests on s390x-linux, ok for trunk?
OK.

* libgcc2.c (bitint_reduce_prec): For big endian
__LIBGCC_BITINT_ORDER__ use ++*p and --*p instead of
++p and --p.
* soft-fp/bitint.h (bitint_reduce_prec): Likewise.
