Referenced commit addressed endianness issue in mlx5 pedit implementation
in ad hoc manner instead of systematically treating integer values
according to their types which left pedit fields of sizes not equal to 4
and where the bytes being modified are not least significant ones broken on
big endian machines since wrong bits will be consumed during parsing which
leads to following example error when applying pedit to source and
destination MAC addresses:

Treat masks and values of pedit and filter match as network byte order,
refactor pointers to them to void pointers instead of confusing u32
pointers and only cast to pointer-to-integer when reading a value from
them. Treat pedit mlx5_fields->field_mask as host byte order according to
its type u32, change the constants in fields array accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
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.
