[CASSINI]: Fix endianness bug.

Here's proposed fix for RX checksum handling in cassini; it affects
little-endian working with half-duplex gigabit, but obviously needs
testing on big-endian too.

The problem is, we need to convert checksum to fixed-endian *before*
correcting for (unstripped) FCS.  On big-endian it won't matter
(conversion is no-op), on little-endian it will, but only if FCS is
not stripped by hardware; i.e. in half-duplex gigabit mode when
->crc_size is set.

cassini.c part is that fix, cassini.h one consists of trivial
endianness annotations.  With that applied the sucker is endian-clean,
according to sparse.
