Description

netinet: Define IPv6 ECN mask

Define a mask for the code point used for ECN in the Traffic Class field
(2 bits) of an IPv6 header.

 BE:    0       0       3       0       0       0       0       0
Bit: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

    |Version| Traffic Class |           Flow Label                  |

For BE (Big Endian), or network-byte order, this corresponds to 0x00300000.
For Little Endian, it corresponds to 0x00003000.
