[ 071/101] vhost: fix mergeable bufs on BE hosts

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Oct 29 2012 - 18:04:35 EST


3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 910a578f7e9400a78a3b13aba0b4d2df16a2cb05 upstream.

We copy head count to a 16 bit field, this works by chance on LE but on
BE guest gets 0. Fix it up.
