When TFO keys are read back on big endian systems either via the global
sysctl interface or via getsockopt() using TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY, the values
don't match what was written.
For example, on s390x:
# echo "1-2-3-4" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
02000000-01000000-04000000-03000000
Instead of:
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key
00000001-00000002-00000003-00000004
Fix this by converting to the correct endianness on read. This was
reported by Colin Ian King when running the 'tcp_fastopen_backup_key' net
selftest on s390x, which depends on the read value matching what was
written. I've confirmed that the test now passes on big and little endian
systems.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
