4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Daniel Jurgens <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 82d69203df634b4dfa765c94f60ce9482bcc44d6 ]

Use htons instead of unconditionally byte swapping nexthdr.  On a little
endian systems shifting the byte is correct behavior, but it results in
incorrect csums on big endian architectures.

Fixes: f8c6455bb04b ('net/mlx4_en: Extend checksum offloading by CHECKSUM 
COMPLETE')
