Subject: [PATCH net-next] ipv6: fix sparse warnings in privacy stable addresses generation

Those warnings reported by sparse endianness check (via kbuild test robot)
are harmless, nevertheless fix them up and make the code a little bit
easier to read.

Reported-by: kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@...el.com>
Fixes: 622c81d57b392cc ("ipv6: generation of stable privacy addresses for link-local and autoconf")
Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@...essinduktion.org>
