Here's the first set of patches from my RxRPC rewrite, aimed at net-next.
These do some clean ups and bug fixes.  Most of the changes are small, but
there are a couple of bigger changes:

 (*) Convert call flag numbers and event numbers into enums.  Then rename
     the event numbers to all have _EV_ in their name to stop confusion.
     Fix one instance of an event bit being used instead of a flag bit.

 (*) A copy of the Rx protocol header is kept in the sk_buff private data.
     Keep this in host byte order rather than network byte order as it
     makes more sense.  A number of other fields then get converted into
     host byte order too.

     Conversion between host and network byte order is then done at the
     packet reception/generation stage.

The patches can be found here also:

Tagged thusly:

	rxrpc-rewrite-20160304

This is based on net-next/master
This looks really nice, pulled, thanks a lot David.

Can you go through and use "unsigned int" instead of just plain
"unsigned" in the RxRPC code?

Thanks.
