sctp: Clean up sctp checksumming code
The sctp crc32c checksum is always generated in little endian. So, we clean up the code to treat it as little endian and remove all the __force casts. Suggested by Herbert Xu. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
