Subject: [PATCH] tipc: fix issue that tipc_dest neglects of big-endian

The tipc multicast demo in tipcutils fails to work on big-endian hardware.
The tipc multicast server can not receive the packets sent by the multicast
client for that the dest port is always zero after tipc_dest_pop, then it
is found that the struct tipc_dest fails to take big/little endian into
account.
