[PATCH repost for-3.7] vhost: fix mergeable bufs on BE hosts

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>
Date: 2012-10-24 18:37:51
Also in: kvm, stable, virtualization
Subsystem: the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

We copy head count to a 16 bit field, this works by chance on LE but on
BE guest gets 0. Fix it up.

Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
Tested-by: Alexander Graf <redacted>
