> Affects Versions: 2.2.0, 2.3.0, 2.4.0, 2.4.1

> In TestGridmixRecord#binSortTest, the test expects the comparison result of
> WritableComparator.compareBytes, which uses UnsafeComparer, to be the integer
> difference rather than the documented "@return 0 if equal, < 0 if left is
> less than right, etc.".
> TestGridmixRecord#binSortTest code snippet
> {code}
> final int chk = WritableComparator.compareBytes(
> out1.getData(), 0, out1.getLength(),
> out2.getData(), 0, out2.getLength());
> assertEquals(chk, x.compareTo(y));
> assertEquals(chk, cmp.compare(
> out1.getData(), 0, out1.getLength(),
> out2.getData(), 0, out2.getLength()));
> {code}
> The code snippet below shows the Unsafe comparator behavior for
> non-little-endian machines.
> {code}
> if (!littleEndian) {
> return lessThanUnsigned(lw, rw) ? -1 : 1;
> }
> {code}
