A couple of the syscalls which load values (bpf_skb_load_helper_16
and bpf_skb_load_helper_32) are using u16/u32 types which are
triggering warnings as they are then converted from big-endian
to cpu-endian. Fix these by making the types __be instead.

Fixes the following sparse warnings:

net/core/filter.c:246:32: warning: cast to restricted __be16

You are awesome, thank you!
