Sean Chang 52738352a6 riscv: kvm: Use endian-specific __lelong for NACL shared memory
When compiling with sparse enabled (C=2), bitwise type warnings are
triggered in the RISC-V KVM implementation. This occurs because the
user-space data unboxing macro '__get_user_asm' performs implicit
casting on restricted types without forcing the compiler's compliance.

Additionally, raw 'unsigned long *' pointers are used to access the
SBI NACL shared memory, whereas the RISC-V SBI specification mandates
that these structures must follow little-endian byte ordering.

Fix these by:
1. Adding a '__force' cast to '__get_user_asm()' to safely suppress
   implicit cast warnings during user-space data fetching.
2. Introducing the '__lelong' type macro, which dynamically resolves to
   '__le32' or '__le64' depending on XLEN, and replacing 'unsigned long *'
   with '__lelong *' to enforce proper compile-time endianness checks.
