Did not miss it - I just don't think that makes it any more
understandable - the __force __be16 makes it clear I believe
that this is correct, sparse does not like this though - so tell
sparse. The local variable would need to be explained as it is
functionally not necessary - therefor I find it more confusing
that using  __force here.

If that rational is wrong let me know.

thx!
