====================
This patch set is a result of a discussion we had around the RFC patchset from
Ilya [1]. The fix for the narrow loads from the RFC series is still relevant,
but this series does not depend on it. Nor is it required to unbreak sk_lookup
tests on BE, if this series gets applied.
To summarize the takeaways from [1]:
1) we want to make 2-byte load from ctx->remote_port portable across LE and BE,
2) we keep the 4-byte load from ctx->remote_port as it is today - result varies
on endianess of the platform.

v1 -> v2:
- Remove needless check that 4-byte load is from &ctx->remote_port offset

============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
