Subject: [PATCH v2] ipv6: suppress sparse warnings in IP6_ECN_set_ce()

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

Pass the correct type __wsum to csum_sub() and csum_add(). This doesn't
really change anything since __wsum really *is* __be32, but removes the
address space warnings from sparse.

Fixes: 34ae6a1aa054 ("ipv6: update skb->csum when CE mark is propagated")
