Subject: net: cdc_ncm: GetNtbFormat endian fix

From: Bj�rn Mork <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 6314dab4b8fb8493d810e175cb340376052c69b6 ]

The GetNtbFormat and SetNtbFormat requests operate on 16 bit little endian values. We get away with ignoring this most of the time, because we only care about USB_CDC_NCM_NTB16_FORMAT which is 0x0000. This fails for USB_CDC_NCM_NTB32_FORMAT.

Fix comparison between LE value from device and constant by converting the constant to LE.
