All architectures already have little-endian bitops for use by file-
systems that use little-endian allocation tables.  Since these are
more generally useful - Andrew Morton suggested we use them in the
sfc driver - they should be exposed under consistent names.  The
following patch series does that, using the names from
<asm-generic/bitops/le.h> but without the "generic_" prefix.

Ben.
