The simulate_ldr_literal() code always loads a 64-bit quantity, and when
simulating a 32-bit load into a 'W' register, it discards the most
significant 32 bits. For big-endian kernels this means that the relevant
bits are discarded, and the value returned is the the subsequent 32 bits
in memory (i.e. the value at addr + 4).
Additionally, simulate_ldr_literal() and simulate_ldrsw_literal() use a
plain C load, which the compiler may tear or elide (e.g. if the target
is the zero register). Today this doesn't happen to matter, but it may
matter in future if trampoline code uses a LDR (literal) or LDRSW
(literal).
Update simulate_ldr_literal() and simulate_ldrsw_literal() to use an
appropriately-sized READ_ONCE() to perform the access, which avoids
these problems.
