 Modified Files:
 	src/sys/sys: endian.h
 
 Log Message:
 endian.h: Cast to suitable type when byte order conversion is NOP
 
 Otherwise, e.g., following examples do not work as expected on
 big-endian machines:
 
 - printf("%x\n", ntohl(0x01234567890abcdefULL);
 - uint64_t u64 = ntohl(0x01234567890abcdefULL);
 - etc.
 
 Fix PR lib/57478
 
 I've been tested this patch both on big-/little-endian and
 LP64/ILP32 environments over a year without troubles.
 
 I will request to pull this up into netbsd-10 at least,
 if there's no unexpected fallout.
