Simon Horman e9dbebae2e net: stmmac: Correct byte order of perfect_match
The perfect_match parameter of the update_vlan_hash operation is __le16,
and is correctly converted from host byte-order in the lone caller,
stmmac_vlan_update().

However, the implementations of this caller, dwxgmac2_update_vlan_hash()
and dwxgmac2_update_vlan_hash(), both treat this parameter as host byte
order, using the following pattern:

	u32 value = ...
	...
	writel(value | perfect_match, ...);

This is not correct because both:
1) value is host byte order; and
2) writel expects a host byte order value as it's first argument

I believe that this will break on big endian systems. And I expect it
has gone unnoticed by only being exercised on little endian systems.

The approach taken by this patch is to update the callback, and it's
caller to simply use a host byte order value.

Flagged by Sparse.
Compile tested only.
