  Macro "htons" is more efficiant and clearer. It should be used for
constants instead of the __contast_htons macro. Resolves following
checkpatch script complaint:
	WARNING: __constant_htons should be htons

OK, this bit seems fine

IMO: this existing code however is ugly.
     Casting a pointer to a size_t isn't great.

Perhaps:

				struct dhcpMessage *dhcp;

				dhcp = (void *)udhp + sizeof(struct udphdr);

in a separate patch.

And dhcph->cookie already is a __be32 so the cast is pointless.

drivers/staging/r8188eu/core/rtw_br_ext.c-598-  __be32 cookie;

Thank you Joe. I will include this code clean up as separates patches are resend

Hello Joe,
Other thank looking ugly, is there any impact / risk associated with such
casting? I tried to look for the reasons myself but did not find anything
relevant or to the point.

Thank you,
