Subject: [patch 3/4] mv643xx_eth: fix byte order when checksum offload is enabled

From: Byron Bradley <byron.bbradley@...il.com>

The Marvell Orion system on chips have an integrated mv643xx MAC.  On these
little endian ARM devices mv643xx will oops when checksum offload is
enabled.  Swapping the byte order of the protocol and checksum solves this
problem.
