[PATCH V2] rds: ib: force endiannes annotation

[Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org>]

While the endiannes is being handled correctly as indicated by the comment
above the offending line - sparse was unhappy with the missing annotation
as be64_to_cpu() expects a __be64 argument. To mitigate this annotation
all involved variables are changed to a consistent __le64 and the
 conversion to uint64_t delayed to the call to rds_cong_map_updated().

Problem located by an experimental coccinelle script to locate
patters that make sparse unhappy (false positives):
net/rds/ib_recv.c:827:23: warning: cast to restricted __le64

V2: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> rejected the need for using __force
    here - instead solve the sparse issue by updating all of the involved
    variables - which results in an identical binary as well without using
    the __force "solution" to the sparse warning. Thanks !

Patch was compile-tested with: x86_64_defconfig + INFINIBAND=m, RDS_RDMA=m

Patch was verified not to change the binary by diffing the
generated object code before and after applying the patch.

Patch is against 5.1-rc6 (localversion-next is 20190429)
