net: dl2k: Use proper conversion of dev_addr before IO to device
The driver is using iowriteXX()/ioreadXX() APIs which are LE IO
accessors simplified as
1. Convert given value _from_ CPU _to_ LE
2. Write it to the device as is
The dev_addr is a byte stream, but because the driver uses 16-bit
IO accessors, it wants to perform double conversion on BE CPUs,
but it took it wrong, as it effectivelly does two times _from_ CPU
_to_ LE. What it has to do is to consider dev_addr as an array of
LE16 and hence do _from_ LE _to_ CPU conversion, followed by implied
_from_ CPU _to_ LE in the iowrite16().
To achieve that, use get_unaligned_le16(). This will make it correct
and allows to avoid sparse warning as reported by LKP.
