arm64: fix endianness annotation for reloc_insn_movw() & reloc_insn_imm()
Here the functions reloc_insn_movw() & reloc_insn_imm() are used to read, modify and write back ARM instructions, which are always stored in memory in little-endian order. These values are thus correctly converted to/from native order but the pointers used to hold their addresses are declared as for native order values. Fix this by declaring the pointers as __le32* and remove the casts that are now unneeded.
