From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Shifting and masking strHostIfSetMulti->enabled is redundant since
enabled is a bool and so all the shifted and masked values will be
zero. Replace them with zero to simplify the code.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1339458 ("Bad shift operation") and
CID#1339506 ("Operands don't affect result").

This might be more an indication of another defect

Perhaps this is just supposed to be

	*pu8CurrByte++ = strHostIfSetMulti->enabled;

without the three byte sets to zero after that.

This is harder to understand now.  I would be better to solve this by
declaring a struct with the right format and using cpu_to_be32().
