The firmware expects the port numbers for offloaded UDP tunnels in
Little Endian format. We accidentally sent the value in Big Endian
format which obviously will cause the wrong port number to be put into
the UDP tunnels list. This results in VxLAN and Geneve tunnel Rx
offloads being essentially disabled, unless the port number happens to
be identical after byte swapping. Note that i40e_aq_add_udp_tunnel()
will byteswap the parameter from host order into Little Endian so we
don't need worry about passing strictly a __le16 value to the command.
This patch essentially reverts b3f5c7bc88 ("i40e: Fix for extra byte
swap in tunnel setup", 2016-08-24), but in a way that makes the result
much more clear to the reader.
