Subject: [PATCH 3.14 52/87] net: mvneta: Fix big endian issue in mvneta_txq_desc_csum()

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Fitzsimmons <fitzsim@...zsim.org>

[ Upstream commit 0a1985879437d14bda8c90d0dae3455c467d7642 ]

This commit fixes the command value generated for CSUM calculation
when running in big endian mode.  The Ethernet protocol ID for IP was
being unconditionally byte-swapped in the layer 3 protocol check (with
swab16), which caused the mvneta driver to not function correctly in
big endian mode.  This patch byte-swaps the ID conditionally with
htons.
