Hi Roopa

I noticed inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() has this endian issue 
when building an UDP header.

Would the following fix break user space ?

Thanks.

I do not see how. As I recall this is only for going through
ip_route_input_rcu and ip_route_output_key_hash_rcu and a call to
fib4_rules_early_flow_dissect.
