Make sense.

Really doesn't make much difference and I wounder why the macro version
is necessary at all. Since the function already compiles to:


#define rte_bswap32(x) ((uint32_t)(__builtin_constant_p(x) ?            \
                                   rte_constant_bswap32(x) :            \
                                   rte_arch_bswap32(x)))
