This patch fixes problem with passing structures and unions smaller than register as argument in variadic functions
on big endian architectures. 
For example passing 3 chars in a structure as argument of variadic function LLVM is passing those chars 
left-adjusted in register and trying to read them like they are right-adjusted, and that makes the problem.
I have changed reading of those arguments. Now LLVM reads them properly (left-adjusted). I detected
this problem on ARM32 big endian, MIPS32 big endian and MIPS64 big endian.
