OK. Thanks.

In little endian cases, the macros htons and cpu_to_be16 unfolds
to __swab16 which provides special case for constants. In big
endian cases, __constant_htons and htons expand directly to the
same expression. The same applies for __constant_cpu_to_be16 and
cpu_to_be16.

So, replace __constant_htons with htons and __constant_cpu_to_be16
with cpu_to_be16 with the goal of getting rid of the definitions
__constant_htons and __constant_cpu_to_be16 completely.

The semantic patch that performs this transformation is as follows:

@@expression x;@@

(
- __constant_htons(x)
+ htons(x)
|
- __constant_cpu_to_be16(x)
+ cpu_to_be16(x)
)
