[PATCH net-next] ppp: clean up endianness conversions

From: Julian Wiedmann <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-07 14:41:05
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

sparse complains about some harmless endianness issues:
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:281:21: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types)
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:281:21:    expected unsigned int [usertype] ack
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:281:21:    got restricted __be32
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:283:23: warning: cast to restricted __be32
Here 'ack' is assigned a value in network-order, and then also the
byte-swapped value in host-order. Clean this up by doing the byte-swap
as part of the assignment.
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:358:26: warning: cast from restricted __be16
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:358:26: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different base types)
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:358:26:    expected unsigned short [usertype] call_id
drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c:358:26:    got restricted __be16 [usertype]
Here we use the wrong flavour of byte-swap. Use ntohs(), which of course
gives the same result.
