On little-endian systems, doing subtraction after htons()
leads to interesting results:

Given:
  MAGIC_BYTES = 123 = 0x007B aka. in big endian: 0x7B00 = 31488
  sizeof(struct iphdr) = 20

Before this patch:
__bpf_constant_htons(MAGIC_BYTES) - sizeof(struct iphdr) = 0x7AEC
0x7AEC = htons(0xEC7A) = htons(60538)

So these were outer IP packets with a total length of 123 bytes,
containing an inner IP packet with a total length of 60538 bytes.

After this patch:
__bpf_constant_htons(MAGIC_BYTES - sizeof(struct iphdr)) = htons(103)

Now these packets are outer IP packets with a total length of 123 bytes,
containing an inner IP packet with a total length of 103 bytes.

I didn't target bpf and add a Fixes: e853ae776a58 ("selftests/bpf:
support BPF_FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_ENCAP"), since it only breaks
when I change the BPF flow dissector to interact with tot_len.

Applied to bpf-next/net. Thanks.
