[PATCH for-3.19] vhost/net: fix up num_buffers endian-ness

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

In virtio 1.0 mode, when mergeable buffers are enabled on a big-endian
host, num_buffers wasn't byte-swapped correctly, so large incoming
packets got corrupted.

To fix, fill it in within hdr - this also makes sure it gets
the correct type.

It seems important to get this into 3.19, otherwise
VIRTIO_1 feature bit is unreliable.

Dave, do you plan another pull request for 3.19?
If yes pls merge this, if not pls let me know and I'll try to
send it to Linus directly.
