This patch set is a result of a discussion we had around the RFC patchset from
Ilya [1]. The fix for the narrow loads from the RFC series is still relevant,
but this series does not depend on it. Nor is it required to unbreak sk_lookup
tests on BE, if this series gets applied.

To summarize the takeaways from [1]:

 1) we want to make 2-byte load from ctx->remote_port portable across LE and BE,
 2) we keep the 4-byte load from ctx->remote_port as it is today - result varies
    on endianess of the platform.

Jakub Sitnicki (3):
  bpf: Treat bpf_sk_lookup remote_port as a 2-byte field
  selftests/bpf: Fix u8 narrow load checks for bpf_sk_lookup remote_port
  selftests/bpf: Fix test for 4-byte load from remote_port on big-endian
