Subject: [PATCH net-2.6] be2net: fix mccq create for big endian
 architectures

The request to create an mccq was being dispatched without
doing a byte swap of num_pages. This byte swap is necessary
for Big Endian systems like PPC. Not having this fix leads
mccq create to fail on BE ASICs running newer version of
firmware, thereby causing driver initialization failure.
