linux-user: Properly Handle semun Structure In Cross-Endian Situations
The semun union used in the semctl system call contains both an int (val) and pointers. In cross-endian situations on 64 bit targets, the value passed to semctl is an 8 byte (abi_long) value and thus does not have the 4-byte val field in the correct location. In order to rectify this, the other half of the union must be accessed. This is achieved in code by performing a byte swap on the entire 8 byte union, followed by a 4-byte swap of the first half. Also, eliminate an extraneous (dead) line of code that sets target_su.val in the IPC_SET/IPC_GET case.
