        They were all in host order until your patch (though it looks like
I may have used __be16 instead of __u32 and it "worked" despite the
type error. I left it as 32 bits for netlink to be int-sized and not
have unintended promotions, not to mention because "vxlan_port" is 32bit,
and still is. I'm ok with switching them to network order and 16 bit,
but I think you should make "vxlan_port" the same byte
order and size as "remote_port" so the comparisons below don't require
byte-swapping at run-time, as the original code did not.

So my suggestion is you make vxlan_port be __be16 as part of this
patch, too.
