[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net: add endianness annotations to ethernet headers

[David Marchand <david.marchand@redhat.com>]

Spotted by sparse in OVS build:

/home/runner/work/ovs/ovs/dpdk-dir/build/include/rte_flow.h:789:27:
error: incorrect type in initializer (different base types)
/home/runner/work/ovs/ovs/dpdk-dir/build/include/rte_flow.h:789:27:

got restricted ovs_be16 [usertype]

This was not caught before as no code in headers was using those fields.
This changed with commit 6f2168b69aee ("ethdev: reuse ethernet header
definition in flow item") and commit a56a262e3408 ("ethdev: reuse VLAN
header definition in flow item").
