Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net/iucv: improve endianness handling

From: Hans Wippel <hwippel@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Use proper endianness conversion for an skb protocol assignment. Given
that IUCV is only available on big endian systems (s390), this simply
avoids an endianness warning reported by sparse.
