Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/3] ipv6: Add
 ipv6_addr_{cpu_to_be32,be32_to_cpu} helpers

Hi,

This series adds and uses some new helpers,
ipv6_addr_{cpu_to_be32,be32_to_cpu}, which are intended to assist in
byte order manipulation of IPv6 addresses stored as as arrays.

---
Changes in v2:
- Collected tags from Andrew Lunn and Jijie Shao. Thanks!
- Corrected typo in commit message of 1st patch: cpy -> CPU.
  Thanks to Andrew Lunn.
- Also enhanced same commit message to mention both helpers.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240812-ipv6_addr-helpers-v1-0-aab5d1f35c40@kernel.org
