wifi: mt76: mmio_*_copy fix byte order and alignment
Update functions which copy to and from MMIO to load bytes as Little Endian, and also support unaligned buffers. PCI devices almost universally use Little Endian ordering for MMIO registers, mt76 is no exception. PCI hardware that is designed to work with Big Endian CPUs often (but not always) "helps" by transparently byte-swapping MMIO reads and writes on the wire. If this is enabled then it cannot be turned off for a single write. On hardware which does not support this, writel() does the swap in software. When we are transferring arbitrary bytes to MMIO space, we need them to arrive in the same order they were in memory, so when the hardware swaps them this is a problem. Rather than care about how our PCI host controller works, we instead load bytes as Little Endian - so on a Big Endian machine this will reverse them, then we use writel() which will put them back in the right order again. This way we do not make it our business whether the swapping is done in software or hardware. Furthermore, inspection of the code shows that these functions are often called with stack-allocated u8 arrays which have no alignment guarantees so we now use (get|put)_unaligned_le32().
