When decoding the perf_regs mask in regs_dump__printf(), we loop through the mask using find_first_bit and find_next_bit functions. "mask" is of type "u64", but sent as a "unsigned long *" to lib functions along with sizeof(). While the exisitng code works fine in most of the case, the logic is broken when using a 32bit perf on a 64bit kernel (Big Endian). We end up reading the wrong word of the u64 first in the lib functions. Proposed fix is to swap the words of the u64 to handle this case. This is not endianess swap.
