* coccinelle: new inplace-byteswaps.cocci to remove inplace-byteswapping callsPeter Maydell2018-10-161-0/+65
Add a new Coccinelle script which replaces uses of the inplace byteswapping functions *_to_cpus() and cpu_to_*s() with their not-in-place equivalents. This is useful for where the swapping is done on members of a packed struct -- taking the address of the member to pass it to an inplace function is undefined behaviour in C.
