Subject: [PATCH 3.16 098/366] net: systemport: Fix sparse warnings in
 bcm_sysport_insert_tsb()

3.16.60-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@...il.com>

commit c0eb05585d4184596453622b5abba7d13dd20667 upstream.

skb->protocol is a __be16 which we would be calling htons() against,
while this is not wrong per-se as it correctly results in swapping the
value on LE hosts, this still upsets sparse. Adopt a similar pattern to
what other drivers do and just assign ip_ver to skb->protocol, and then
use htons() against the different constants such that the compiler can
resolve the values at build time.
