The page table walker reads PTEs using address_space_ldl/ldq which use
compile-time native endianness (always LE for RISC-V). However, when a
big-endian kernel writes PTEs via normal store instructions, they are
stored in big-endian byte order. The walker then misinterprets the PTE
values, causing page faults and a hang when the kernel enables the MMU.

The RISC-V privileged specification states that implicit data memory
accesses to supervisor-level memory management data structures follow
the hart's endianness setting (MSTATUS SBE/MBE bits).

Fix both PTE reads and atomic A/D bit updates to use the explicit _le
or _be memory access variants based on the hart's runtime endianness.
