[LTP] [PATCH] mprotect04: get the right function entry of big endian powerpc system

On Big endian powerpc ABI, function ptrs are basically pointers to
function descriptors. The testcase copies functions which results
in function descriptors getting copied. So easily the access was
denied by memory protection key in that address when performing it.

10000000-10020000 r-xp 00000000 fd:00 167223           mprotect04
10020000-10030000 r--p 00010000 fd:00 167223           mprotect04
10030000-10040000 rw-p 00020000 fd:00 167223           mprotect04
1001a380000-1001a3b0000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
7fffa6c60000-7fffa6c80000 --xp 00000000 00:00 0

&exec_func = 0x10030170
&func = 0x7fffa6c60170

While perform the (*func)(); we get segmentation fault.

strace log:
-----------
mprotect(0x7fffaed00000, 131072, PROT_EXEC) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [], 8)  = 0
--- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_PKUERR, si_addr=0x7fffaed00170} ---
